bassman67, have you considered blocking off, via nets, an area of the pond to try and grow out the new black crappie and yellow perch?


I would guess you could experience well over 50% mortality of the 'new' stockers due to predation by the LMB and CC that are already in the pond. The 2000 minnows may get eaten out too.

"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
