Pat :

Glad you got your report and posted about it. Did they include in the report the effect of adding the new part of the pond to the total picture? It does not suprise me that it reflects bass heavy. Did you watch the electroshock survey? If you did tell us what you saw. Did the report have lengths and weights or RW for the bass and BG? If you have questions about the report call and talk to the person who was on site. If you want there are plenty of people on the forum who can answer questions about reports. If your bass population requires you to add forage fish every year is that ok with you? There are different methods {timing, types and sizes of fish}used to adjust a forage base.

I question the alka. reading . Do you currently have a bloom and are you activly fert. If so and the alka. is that low your fert. program would not work. Could it be a typo. and be 16.8 or 26.8. Did they tell you to add lime in the report? Even pros, like doctors, make a mistake now and then. If it were a doctor and what he said did not make sense to you then it would be time for a second opinion. Good luck. ewest
