Guys, I know we all spend a lot of time and money on these ponds and the fish in them.

I would like to hear some success stories of some big fish you guys have raised and anything special you think you did to achieve that success.

Also, how long it took and things you would do over or better if you could.

Pictures would be nice too but optional. You don't have to post faces. Maybe a scale picture (I always say it ain't true, unless you put it on a scale)

I know sometimes, you don't want to handle a trophy fish more than you have to and it is not always practical to put it on a scale, we will just have to take your word for it.

Let's hear them, I love people getting to enjoy all those hours of work and endless dollars spent.

I dont have a big fish to brag about, but will brag about all of the nuggets I've learned from Pond Boss; both Bob himself and the forum community. We build an 8 acre pond in 2020....last night I was throwing feed off the dock, the water was busting with bluegills, HSB and largemouth and I was reflecting on some success to get this far along. I think I'm still on the upward climb to the "new pond bell curve" but man it's a beautiful sight to see these fish feed. Combine last night with having some kids catching fish a few nights ago and it's wonderful to see a plan come together!

A customer is hoping to pull a 13" BG from his pond this year. He's been catching 12" ones and Nate and I shocked some 10 3/4", 1.8# BG/HBG last May.
