Yeah it didn't seem right to me...but I figured I would go with some advice from an "expert" rather than just my own hunch. They said increasing the forage population would help the 10-12" bass growth. Again, I haven't seen many bass at all yet.
I guess I am having the most trouble deciding if 4-5" bluegill are really "stunted". I certainly would like to have bigger eating size, but when I read about stunting, it seems they are 3" with bugged-out eyes. Maybe that is just a more severe case.
My goal overall is decent size BG/crappie for fileting, a few larger bass for occasional harvest or sport, and a decent 2-5lb catfish population for eating. Overall just a balance of larger, edible fish.
