Went to my place yesterday . My main pond water is deep green. I knew that wasn't good. Been feeding about 2 seconds twice a day. I did a 2 second test throw and nothing came to feed. So I went to my small pond at the back of my property. When I tossed in feed, cats and GSF ate voraciously. Went to the creek and repeated. Fish fed well there also.

Went back to main pond and fished with a brown Stubby Steve for BG. Nothing. Then the cork went under. A bass broke the line in the knot. I've seen bass self training on the feed so that's not a surprise. But, never got one on the SS. All this tells me that the super cold temps generated a fish kill and mostly on bluegills. I doubt that many bass survived.

So, as soon as the water clears it will be stocking time again.

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.
