I've always bought into the 1,000 BG fingerlings per acre. Then add bass, 100 per acre, when there are enough groceries to feed them. It takes a heckuva lot of BG to feed bass. But, in warmer climates like Texas, bass need to be culled after the second or third year. They can pretty well decimate forage.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
