It's been discussed many times and trying not to beat the dead horse but I'm trying to figure out if my method of trying to grow giant bass is offtrack or not. 3/4 acre pond,decent quantity ( dont have exact numbers) of 5-10'' bluegills, and aquamax largemouth hand fed as often as I can. Recently between the gills and the bass I'm using 11lbs of feed in a couple weeks. I'm seeing 3-4lb bass come up to eat the pellets along with dozens of gills. I know genetics is crucial but am I missing some elements to have some 7+ lb bass swimming in this pond?
