Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations Moving channel catfish

Moving adult fish to a different body of water frequently causes them to decline. They knew how to succeed in the old BOW, but don't know squat about the new one.

However, if fish food is fed in both ponds, I believe CC who got big on pellets one place will most likely find where to eat them in another. I have moved larger CC from one pond to another, having used my SMB pond to grow out small fingerlings to where they should survive LMB predation in the other pond, with what I feel is success. YMMV.
