Hi guys, been having very good luck raising CNBG in pond and transferring to our larger 7, 8, and 25acre lakes for growing good size largemouth. We've being raising our on CNBG for several years now and really enjoy it as well as the benefits it has.
Im wanting to take it up a notch and try something new we are are wanting to see if anyone has had luck with raising their on Threadfin shad in a small pond and then transferred them out via cast net or seine.
I know it can be done i'd just like to get some pointers.
Probably raising a batch in a .5acre pond would be the easy part. Moving them being the problem.
Right now we grow around 500 lbs of bluegill in a 1 acre lake about 1-2 times a year. They get moved in a 300gallon water tank with a airstone in the bottom. We only go about 3miles down the road to make the drop so the fish aren't in the tank very long.
Can you guys give me some info on raising Threadfins.
