If you wait three years, aren't you worried about having that many spawns before you start to cull?


Not really, after 3 years that will establish a good base and 12" to 14" is the range most bass are stubted. Ether you can have a pond where you only catch one or two 6lbs and up bass or numbers of nice quality bass around 3lbs I would rather have numbers. If I keep catching fish a certain size range then I will start taking them out. Ether way its better than no managment at all lol. also by the way what site did you use to get the link for your avatar every thing i use doesnt work.
