Feeding? I have bass that were stocked on June 22 3years ago at 4-5 inches that are running a solid 17-18 in with a couple 22 inch plus. Granted thats exceptional but they had massive amounts of forage with Bluegills that had not been fed on for probably two prior years. Pond is 3.5 acres, max depth 26 feet
Im seeing a real benefit in the bluegills from feeding. Cant say bass pay any attention to the feed but the will bust hell out of a BG when ty are on the feed plus its a rush to see the catfish.

Rainbows are scrappy little fish, fun to catch on light gear.

I built a lot of structure. I'd been wanting to do this for a long time and had looked at a lot of stuff on the internet.
Here are some samples of some of the items I made, in addition to rock piles, ledges, drop offs and a large dirt ridge in the water....and a garden of cement lawn deer and large tile piles around my island and other strategic locations.....I have enough time invested in them I hope it pays off. It was funny listening to some of the old timers talk about it when they didn't know I was in a store or who had done it. I have a smaller pond I drained that would run directly into this one with a pipe and I plan to fix it and put a 6" pipe running into the pond I can with a valve...and stock the small pond with minnows and crawfish and twice per year open the gate for a while to flood food. Also, I'm tinkering with an natural fish feeder idea. I want to hang a battery powered bug zapper over the water with a shepherd's hook....put a solar panel on a battery with a timer....even if it runs a couple of hours/night, it'll work. |

Great resource... Read up on crayfish, you may find thats a bad idea. Can reallymess up habitat, many are invasive/non native, and can brutalize spawn.
