    You can test phosphorus levels at home for next to nothing. If you have a reef tank, a pond is a walk in the park. Everything you monitor in a reef tank carries over to a pond. If you have a pond and you want quality fish, you better be a really good keeper of WATER.

    Super interesting. With bass fishing it's become a catch& release sport for the majority. Which could be hurting a lot of fisheries for big bass. What about a scenario in that pond your at now. Say you catch a 6+ pound bass & it's weight to length ratio is way under 100% do you harvest that bass to promote big bass population?

    I have a bluegill crowded pond, exact scenario you described with every bluegill being 5” max. A few largemouth bass that are pretty skinny. The only stocker near me offers bass that are 2-3” in size, will these bass be eaten by the other bass in the pond because they’re so small? My pond is 1 acre in size.

    • @aquaticcontrol
      @aquaticcontrol 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s possible, but if there aren’t many bass out there then you should have some survival. They will be stocked into a system where this is already a tremendous amount of food so the odds of them getting eaten are less.

    Hello we purchased a home with a roughly 1500 square foot pond that is about 6 feet deep and approximately 3 years old. There is a lot of invertebrates and frogs. Ph is good and there is a lot of nutrition entering the pond via leaf litter in the fall. It is full of pondweed and naiad and they are growing incredibly fast. In May I have introduced eelgrass and coontail for habitat and oxygen. The pondweed and naiad are so dense we decided to get a small grass carp(knowing it may be too much later on). We also stocked one pound of fathead minnows to provide a future forage base. My wife wanted koi so we got 4 small koi. We are looking to put in an aerator in the next couple weeks before the fish load becomes too high. We are looking to add 3 dozen small bluegill fry and 1 dozen redear fry around September. Our goal is a bluegill pond. Are we on the right track?

      Every bit of research that I have done says that Crappie are not ideal for growing the type of bass population that you are looking for. I'm in the piedmont of NC for reference, but when I am fishing my family's property (5+ acre pond), if I catch crappies under 9", they are harvested and utilized as feed or fertilizer. The larger ones I will let go because they spawn, and it's a free source of baitfish. You can tell crappies age by the size of their eyes. If you catch a fish that is 8" long and eyes the size of quarters, harvest.

    • @aquaticcontrol
      @aquaticcontrol ปีที่แล้ว

      A safe bet would be to harvest anything under 12 or 14 inches for the next couple of years including fingerlings if you can catch them. Typically, the young of year bass are too small to catch on rod and reel, but when we electrofish during bass removals, we remove even the 3 inch bass we see. We would not recommend stocking shad. You’d be better served to stock Bluegill than minnows in most cases.
