I don't really see green sunfish as a great problem. They're not heavy spawners and are more cylindrical shaped that most other sunfish. That makes them a better fit for a predators mouth and gut. They don't get as large as a bluegill so they aren't much of a table fish. I used to toss them on the bank when I caught them but no longer do. To me, they are just another, albeit inefficient, forage fish. Although, I think they're a prettier fish than a bluegill I'm not going to stock them. I can't see them as giving value.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
