Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations Corrective Stocking of My Goofy Pond

Snipe,

I did not know that about the stress levels pre-spawn. Makes perfect sense though if the fish are utilizing their limited energy for something other than their own survival.

I generally LIKE it when guys post a rant on Pond Boss - it usually means they have seen someone learn a lesson the "hard way".

I have learned enough lessons in life the hard way. I am more than happy to avoid a painful error because someone takes the time to post their hard-won knowledge on PB!
