I also have an abundance of YOY bass 7-9" now. The bass have gotten ahead of the spawn of CNBG. I'm sure the crappie have also taken a toll on the forage supply. Some of the bass about 1-1/2-3 lbs are skinny telling me that the forage supply is not present. The 6-10" bass are consuming most of the YOY CNBG before they get large enough to feed the larger bass. I'm leaning towards removing the small bass to give CNBG a little jump. I have no pond weeds yet, but have about an acre of flooded timber and brush that is so thick that you can't get in to fish it.(ducks love it)
