Restocking Pond

[redblood]

I've spent thousands and thousands of dollars on my pond and on fish.. only to have the stupid otters that some numbskull in TWRA decided to let loose in Tennessee.. wipe out every single fish I've stocked..

My brother in law fight them daily in his private lake.

I did a little stocking on my meager pond just today.

I have about a 1/2 acre pond. Built and stocked it over 40 years ago with channel cats bass and bluegill. About ten years in added a few grasscarp. It has been neglected for about 20 years now. Trees grown up around etc. last year I cleaned up the edges and fished it for the first time in close to 20 years.it had several small bluegill and about 14" bass . Still had a grass carp but no catfish. Fed daily all summer . Added 10 grasscarp as the decaying leaves were thick. Fished it today ,just looking for something to do. Caught this guy on an ultralite. Had no idea there were fish this big in there
