The two ponds in question are 15-18 years old. Both were originally stocked with some Florida strain, but I am sure that is long gone.
They both have a fair amount of moss, but less this year due to the extra rain it is not as present. Some years the water is really clear due to the moss, but has remained stained this year. Both ponds should have a variety of shad and minnows in them, but they are rarely seen. Both have crappie which I know are a no no on this board, but the bass seem to eat a lot of the young crappie. I don't know how I would ever get the crappie out at this point.
I see a ton of perch up shallow, but I still catch skinny bass now and then. I think they just have a hard time catching the perch. Most of the bigger fish are pretty chunky
My main question is should I toss the Green Sunfish/Hybrids when I catch them in my trap?
