More than likely the GSF came with the stocked bluegills. I don't see the problem. They only spawn annually and can't keep up with BG and their rolling spawns. Being more fusiform than other sunfish, they are a preferred forage for bass and HSB.

I have a small forage pond that has both GSF and BG and no predators. When I seine to add forage to the bigger pond, I don't hesitate to toss the GSF into it. I very rarely catch one.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
