I've been wanting to say something to you on this video for a while now, but I've been sidetracked. I hope I'm commenting on the one that you had asked about. If this is the video where you asked about fish that are all the same size and a pond because of just so much food to go around for the fish to eat and grow. If this is that video. I have heard some things on this in the past, as well as very recently. There's another TH-camr who is from Texas. His channel goes by the name of Tyler's Reel Fishing. This guy is has to be just about probably one of the greatest new bass fisherman connoisseurs that are out currently. A pretty young guy, I would say mid-20s even. He is extremely skilled in the knowledge of bass fishing. Now although, I've heard about the exact same thing you asked, a lot of fish in a fishery, along with whatever bait fish or food happen to be in the body of water, might keep fish from getting any bigger then they can potentially get. Anyway Tyler, had a guest star on with him who was actually a real expert in it, and even had the credentials to go along with it. A big thing that was discussed is just exactly that what you had asked. He said that we live in a catch and release culture as far as fishing is concerned, and unfortunately, that just doesn't promote fish getting any bigger because of just keeping the same fish in the pond or other body of water. He said something about taking fish out, and eating them, or giving them away as people that need food, etc It was just something like, don't throw everything back always necessarily. Especially if you're seeing what you had been seeing . I had personally heard something like this in the past. I have recently been trying to do something, just like that myself, however, I've been just (If I have the time and there is a close body of water to where I am fishing currently), more or less transplanting fish from one pond to another just to see if there is any kind of a growth. I have noticed, by not fishing in some of those places for a while and coming back to check, that the fishing got better, but not necessarily bigger fish. So I'm not sure if it is a 100% true fact or not, it makes sense though. It might just need to take longer of a time, I'm not sure. But those are my two cents bro. Thanks for putting up with as long of an answer that I just gave. I really appreciate what you do, you're getting me into it more and more everyday! Thanks again! God bless!
Looks like a fun place to go if you just get some bites and catch some bass. I've fished a pond with a bunch of small ones like that but rumor has it there are some big ones in there too but who knows if that's true or not
Thanks for your comment. Next time I am going to look for beds to see if they are still reproducing. Mostly what I am seeing is Tilapia beds in all the local Jacksonville ponds. Good luck on your next trip.

Not really sure if they would grow, but their offspring definitely will. If they were moved to a new pond, that is.
