Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Corrective stocking Unwanted bluegill in SMB, yp pond

JoshMI - Please be sure to keep us updated about the pond's progress, especially next spring. Also it would be very helpful to let us know when first ice arrives and last ice leaves i.e. number of days ice covered. Make a note as to how much snow cover the pond receives this winter season. IMO those AK redear brood stock are not adapted to nor used to a significant winter which is why I think a lot of southern purchased RES do not survive well in states above the Ohio River especially if they have to undergo significant winter conditions.
