I haven't posted in forever. I am not sure if I am the one in Alabama you are referring to or not, but I had a large winter fish kill. All male bluegill. Auburn University did a study on mine and said it was an opportunistic bacterial infection. I was told to treat the fish with an antibiotic. Seems like I used penicillin. It was fairly cold so fish didn't feed well. I mixed the medicine with a bottle of Caro syrup. Poured it over a 50lb bag of feed and mixed in a wheel barrow. I didn't lose them all, but I did lose the largest class of male bluegill. It was sickening since a trophy BG pond was my goal. Since then everything is doing good. My original stocked LMB are pellet trained. I have 15 or so of them that take the large pellets. They are are 8-9 lbs now. Pretty awesome to watch them.
