I have considered that. My worry is that if and when they mature, that I won’t be able to manage them like bg. I could do emerald shiners as a supplement but the fish I have now chose gold fish over them. When they find their permanent home, they will not be seeing any gold fish.
I really started thinking bg as their main forage after watching a Bassmasters tournament where Spotted Bass were the targeted species and one of the top contenders remarked on the size of the spit up bg in his live well.
I have seen mentioned where people are adding crayfish to their pond. I know that they can add weight to bass but was worried about them drilling holes. Any suggestions on this as a supplement and how quickly do they grow ? Can they be raised with any luck? Or, are there negatives and I should just stay away from them.
The more I learn, the less I seem to know. Great to have a site like this!
