Hi all, here is my situation, I have two 1/2 acre ponds right beside each other that we are going to connect this summer. One pond is about 8 years old and it has Walleye, Perch, Blue Gill, Pumpkinseed, and tones of little Green Sunfish. The other is only 2 years old and really don't have much in it.
I'm struggling with what if any thing to keep, My first thought is to keep the Walleye (They are hard to find here, I drove 4 hours to get them) the perch and blue gill. I really don't want the greenies.
We originally stocked 40 Walleye, I don't know how many made it but we catch them threw the ice pretty easily and they are long and skinny. The perch are spawning and look really healthy.
How do you think my new 1.3 acre pond would work out if I did this, Keep all Walleye ( guess 20 to 30 ) Keep all perch (could be hundreds) Keep 100 adult bluegill and all the minnows we can (spottail mainly)
Any thoughts are appreciated
