Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations New to me pond

I've got a smaller pond that sounds much like yours. It has crappie but no signs of stunting or overpopulation. It's got some great bass in it. I figure there is enough bass to keep the crappie population down (or the spawning habitat isn’t ideal for crappie). I also think the bass are why I don't catch a whole lot of bluegill out of it either. All just speculation on my part. I can tell you it's one of my favorite ponds to fish. Way more fun than the ponds full of stunted crappie or 10" bass.
