I have a small pond (2/5 acre). I know that it is generally considered to small to succesfully manage for LMB but, it is an existing pond on the property we purchased. The pond has bluegill (non-hybrid), channel catfish, yellow perch, and of course large mouth bass. It appears to me that the bass are not as fat as they should be and that they are just way to numerous for such a small pond. I know that harvesting is the recommended solution to this problem. I was wondering if an alternate solution might be to stock just 1 or 2 walleye of large enough size to not get eaten by the few larger bass, and hopefully feed on the smaller (6-8") bass.

Thanks in advance for any help

Brian

Where we live, a bag of fresh fish fillets is a gift!

A lot of folks I know are just lazy when it comes to cleaning them. It surprised me, because they're easy to clean and are really good fried up thin and crispy.
