Caught one RES, one YP, many, many HBG, and three SMB. The SMB were the first ones I've ever caught, in my life. Water temps are up to 80 degrees about 12" deep. The YP have pretty much stopped biting. The HBG will definitely nibble on swimmers.. They might need to be removed for that reason.. (If they can be removed). Lots of tiny fry along the banks. Not sure what they are.





Didn't get a pic of the YP.

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.
