Pond Boss Forums Thread Like Summary - Dinner

I decided that I wanted fish for dinner, and I thought that I could catch a HSB relatively quickly. I planned on catching 1 and quitting. Nope. Chummed a bit with Optimal Hand Throw pellets, used a Chubby Stubby Steve's on a 2/0 hook and caught 6 in roughly 30 minutes. I released the 3 smaller ones, used a rubberized net to get them safely out of the water and back in. These are 4 year old fish. I didn't weigh any, the top one was re-absorbing eggs.

So, now I have fillets in the fridge, I will remove any of the red flesh, vac pack and store for the winter.

Thanks. My pond is like the cobblers kids shoes. Never time for it, let alone fish in it.
