Hi team,
Stocked 25 lbs of tilapia in my 1 acre one year old pond in June. I stocked them primarily to supply bass food. I’ve been experimenting with trying to catch them because I would like to harvest them to fillet before they die in October. I managed to catch one fish; was very surprised how much it had grown since stocked. Anyway, I’ve tried bread corn peas and zucchini, and can’t keep the bluegill off of any of them. In fact I think I caught 25 bluegill to the one tilapia I’ve been able to get.
Any ideas to more efficiently catch the tilapia?
Thanks, Tony
