To encourage more 3"-6" bluegill, try removing 6"+ bluegill and bass less than 12". It is difficult to say exactly how many because we haven't seen the pond, but for starters remove 10-20 large bluegill per acre and any 12" or less largemouth bass. Bass larger than 12" may need to be harvested, but again, it is difficult for me to make this recommendation with little knowledge of the population.

Fertilize the lake this spring to encourage plankton production.

It's ALL about the fish!
