Back to the pea gravel post. I'm starting to dig out my 5 acre pond and designing the bottom. I want to have some spawning areas and like the use of a tarp to keep the pea gravel from sinking into the clay.

But now I'm reading that bluegill will spawn with or without the pea gravel. What about the bass? Will they use the pea gravel? Would it be better to have seveal smaller spawning ares or one big one? What is the best size for a spawning area?

Thanks,
Eddie

It's not how many ideas you have, but how many you make happen.

3/4 and 4 acre ponds.
