Refocusing on BCR's goals, is there any way to have a smaller side forage pond for fatheads, or possibly some kind of caged-off area in the main pond to house breeding fatheads?
I'm just exploring any possible paths to get to BCR's goals of a YP-harvest pond.
Using a forage pond is somewhat akin to the sim-world nature of using fish feed. It's not natural, but it can get you where you want to go.
Sunil, that's a possibility, but he'd have to check alkalinity of the water and bring it up over 40, fertilize, have habitat for them to reproduce and have a seine to seine the pond to transfer minnows. Moving enough with minnow traps is like whizzing on a bonfire to put it out.
