Harvest is an integral part of the pond management. Either you selectively harvest what you want, or Mother Nature will NOT be selective when she harvests the majority of the fish all at once..... I know and I'm going to start next year. That isn't the only reason I didn't start fishing, but it sure helped. I was also worried that my LMB were not stable yet. I only see 4 of my original stockers. There might be more but I only see what looks like the same 4 swimming together all the time. Which is another point since having my own pond, I worry about how fragile it is all the time. lol A customer has a small pond where he was growing HBG. They were up to 1.5#, and he wasn't harvesting them, AND he didn't have the aeration system running. Mother Nature decided to harvest them for him. That's a shame, they were some great fish.
