They are a blast. I highly recommend. I'm very glad I put them in my pond. I'm running a feeder four seconds a day, and have 10" fish in one year. They are delicious, fun to catch, i believe I've had good recruitment. I'm hoping for years of YP fishing for the grandkids. Hopefully the few SMB and HSB that are in the pond will keep the YP numbers in check.
12 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (decreasing), SMB, and HSB (only two have been seen in 5 yrs)
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
