Hey 123 Looks like the first thing you are going to have to consider is improving water quality. Some of the guys here are real experts and will help you with that. You probably won't need to add any forage to this pond, it seems from your posts that these ponds are already heavy with BG. Might consider taking a bunch of them out, probably some of the small LMB too.
Thats a good looking fish in pic#1...rubber worm? Also always always hold a fish sideways and as far out towards the camera as you possibly can...old tip from the T.V. fisherman!
