Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Creating habitat Crappie experiment

I don't think BG will be much if any benefit for you. In fact I believe it will only add another variable to the equation for you to ponder down the road when trying to decide if this is a good formula or not. I agree about Tshad not working in a pond that size, so would stick with FHM and GSH for forage. I don't think there is any way around having to add more forage at times down the road and would expect to have to do a lot more population evaluating in this kind of set up vs. a BG/LMB pond. The only self-regulating crappie ponds that I have seen on a regular basis have been deep borrow pit type ponds that the river floods in every few years or so.
