Hello, I just signed up for the magazine and forum today, and have already found a solution for combatting my pond's cattails - thanks.

I share a 10 acre pond with a few neighbors, and have culled the largemouth bass population, and am enjoying a fairly well balanced pond. I am already catching quite a few 9-10 inch bluegill.


I'd appreciate some advice on how to best help those bluegill get even bigger. Should I feed them something other than flies I've tied?

Also, I'm about the only person that harvests fish from the pond. I understand the ratio of bass to bluegill that I should harvest, but how many fish per acre should be harvested?
