Fished a friend of mine's pond I have been managing for him for the last 4 years when he bought it. The results have been very good from the starting point to now. I was not even trying to catch bluegill but to remove last year's LMB and crappies but I hooked into a few BG.

4 year old? Boy, does time fly!!!! Ditto! I remember when Travis posted pics of his honeymoon trip in the Smokeys! Definitely. Good size pond too. How big?
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Depends on water levels but right around 4.2 acres. It's extremely shallow though. Max depth of 7' and average depth of 3'. Over 50 years old but we have done alot to maximize it.

Good to hear the progress on this pond. Nice fish. Very good example of some impressive trout growth overwinter - who wouldn't want to try some of those dandy fish? Owner must be pleased. Get some pics of your daughter catchin' some fish. PS quit dragging those HSB around in the dirt & leaves - LOL.
