Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Raising Forage and Bait Dr. Schwarz and his Freshwater Prawns

Schwarz is not the only one in Texas going with the fresh water prawns to put weight on his Florida lmb. I have talked to Mark @ Camelot Bell Ranch and he is also feeding freshwater prawns and telling of good lmb growth. I can relate to what Schwartz said about growing lmb in a heavy stocked forage fish pond, where it's tough to get a bite sometimes when fishing for lmb. He talks of where he added F1's hoping to improve the fishing and then realized he should have stayed with his original plan of using pure Florida lmb . I have thought about adding some northern lmb to my pond to improve the bite, but I am staying with the Camelot from Overton's Texas Legacy Lmb. The prawns sound interesting but like Tp and where I am located , it will be necessary to add the prawns every spring. It's not so easy to stay with the plan when you are there fishing and can't catch an lmb. One of these days, maybe after I get my first spawn of lmb I will add some prawns to the pond and see what happens.
