I Stand with BC.
HIGH maintenance I think is the word.
RENOVATION now that is definately a bad word for the everyday blue collar man on a 5 acre pond.
I do have to say to the contrary that I have seen ponds that work well in ballance with crappie. As for fishing them. I love it. Crappie are great fish to catch and eat. As long as they can be kept in check.
GG, well that is to be seen. I would like to see what would happen on a standardized stocking where BG numbers are replaced with GGs at the same stock rate. (bass, GG, RES)
