I guess im a fish nerd because I weigh and measure almost every bass over 12" and I keep a record in a spreadsheet...


Hey, how are your Tiger Bass doing? Are they catchable on artificial? I'm considering getting some myself -- right now I have no bass stocked at all -- and would like to get the benefit of your experience.


The TB are doing really good. I stocked them in 2010. Excellent growth rates. Had several over 10 pounds "caught" in last electro survey this past spring. Really only have tried to catch them on artificial bait. Plastics, crankbaits, top water, you name it.

I did let my forage base build for 2 years before I stocked my F1 TB. I think that is a big reason for my success.


7 Acre +/- pond. Stocked with CNBG, RESF, GS, TFS, FHM, in March - June of 2008, Stocked with 200 3" F1 Tiger Bass in March of 2010... Additional stockings of CNBG, Tilapia, FHM in May of 2011.April of 2012 and May of 2013.
