Tell me more about your fishery, your goals, etc. and I can help.
Pond is about 1 3/4 acre - 14' deep at dam side - most water 6' and less is covered by watershield making fishing from shore difficult. Also makes it difficult to target bass as they seem to be stalking bluegills under the weeds. There are a few spots not covered by weeds that I have caught the big fish at using texas rigged worms in about 6'-8' deep water.
Pond has a lot of BCP in the 7"-10" range with most being around 8". Since I purchased property in late March I've taken out over 125 of them.
White perch were bucket stocked at some point and I've caught 3 total - all of nice 10" size and fat.
Bluegills seemed to be rather low in number so I've stocked 300 fingerlings and 275 intermediate sized ones since buying property. They seem to be spawning well as I see recent fry and smaller BG hiding in grass of late
I'd estimate there are between 20-50 bass in pond. Most are small and under 13" long but I've caught a 5-6 lb+ fish a couple times (maybe the same fish) and caught a nice 4lb+ fish this week.
My take is that the BCP have been impacting the bass and BG spawn over the years to the point their numbers are low. The lack of forage in shallow water for bass lead the remaining bass to be slow growing with only a few able to get big enough to eat crappie/perch but once they do that they can get to decent size.
My plan to manage is to remove as many crappie as possible and improve the BG/Bass fishery. Started hand feeding the BG this summer and between that and the stocking it is improving. I was floating the idea about hybrid crappie as they are supposedly easier to manage in small bodies of water.
I will probably hold off stocking anymore BG this year unless I can get some more intermediate sized ones. Next spring I would like to add some more BG and possibly a couple dozen bass fingerlings - maybe F1 type if I can find some.
