Hbound, just a side note. Don't get down about your lake. I'd love to have a 35 acre BOW, warts and all.
g-jake, I understand your comments about electrofishing as a culling method. In my 4.5 acre main pond, it worked very, very well and we focused on removing rough fish like carp and suckers; I think we had bullheads in there too, but can't exactly recall. There were LMB, SMB, and YP, as well as BG and BC that came up, but I only netted a few select ones from those species to relocate to my neighborhood pond. Your comment about the 'rough' approach to areas (ramming into brush with those chandeliers bumping stuff) is spot on, yet we still brought up a ton of fish.
