Would have been a prime candidate for some Camelot Bell bass fingerlings .

Todd,

Probably going to try and get some of those if my pond gets built in time.

Those 4 bass will strongly reduce survival of stocked fish compared to if the adult bass were not there. Each of those bass can easily eat 10-20 FHM per day when water temp is 55+. Try live bait.

Plus if they happen to spawn, that will really throw off the order of things!!

Talk about a great lake. I thought our 2 acre pond in the making was cool. Your Cadillac on Culvert structure is too cool if inded it is clear of any oils/residue.

The three culverts we dropped into our pond cost us a new transmission on my Dad's Chevy. Ugh.

Where are you located? That's some clear water!

Its my folk's place in the hill country, the property is outside of Blanco, TX. It is heaven.

I tried for 3 days to catch those bass, I tried everything and no luck. Ended up stocking a bunch of bluegill and fathead minnows. I will continue to stock bait fish to try and offset the existing bass. Sucks but hopefully it will end up working out.

That Cadillac is underwater now, can't see it. Got some great structure in it though. One day we will empty it a bunch and work on more structure.

Ill upload some newer photos if anyone wants to see the progress.
