Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations LM bass mortality vs. annual harvest

Al,

If you are happy with your catch rates, size of fish, etc., why are you thinking about changing your harvest plan? IMO every BOW has it's own personality, carrying capacity, etc. There are no fixed numbers that work for every BOW...It all depends....

IMO I would tell your buddies that if they catch a large skinny bass (not right after spawn) to go ahead and harvest it as it is probably an older fish in decline and will just end up as a dead fish in the bottom of the pond anyway.

Just my 2 cents
