My pond is LMB heavy and the pond is reflective of this. There are no fingerlings along the bank anymore, no crawfish being trapped or netted and the few bass that have been caught are not as fat as I would like to see. They are not skinny, they are a nice thickness, but they don't have that belly on them that says there is an overabundance of prey.

My problem: I cannot seem to catch them, only one or two, here and there. I have guest over from time to time that catches them at will. I try all the same things, but with no success. Most LMB that he catches are 15" to 19".

Can you all please give me some LMB tips. They are in there and they are plentiful. I need some techniques on targeting LMB. Thanks in advance

My pond is about 1/3 acre, stocked with LMB, BG, SC
