Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations Yellow Perch Talk

Bill:

If LMB are added to the pond to control the GSF, could they be managed via slot culling like is done in ponds that are managed for large BG? Remove LMB that are over 14" long and you shouldn't have them eating the larger YP.

Just because I don't have a history with the ponds that I am asked to Rotenone, I always figure on using the .6 ac/ft per gallon dosage for an application rate. That will kill bullheads and common carp in an organic rich pond.

I too have seen GSF as small as 2.5" full of eggs.
