STOCKING STRATEGY WATER DEPTH – 6 FOOT MIN. SEASON – SPRING OR FALL ALL OR SPLIT CONTAINERS WATER QUANTITY – 35 gal/700 fing ACCLIMATION

FISH MANAGEMENT INITIAL 4 YEARS – 15” MINIMUM LENGTH LIMIT ON LARGEMOUTH BASS

MANAGEMENT OPTIONS PANFISH OPTION ALL PURPOSE OPTION BIG BASS OPTION

PANFISH OPTION OBJECTIVE – BIG BLUEGILL NEED GOOD WATER CLARITY, AT LEAST 18” 15” MINIMUM LENGTH LIMIT – LM BASS

ALL PURPOSE OPTION OBJECTIVE – DECENT ALL AROUND FISHERY CHANGE TO 12-15” SLOT LENGTH LIMIT ON LARGEMOUTH BASS HARVEST 30, 8-12” LM BASS/ACRE/YR

BIG BASS OPTION

BIG BASS OPTION OBJECTIVE – PRODUCE TROPHY LM BASS CHANGE TO 12-15” SLOT LENGTH LIMIT HARVEST 30-50, 8-12” LM BASS/ACRE/YR HARVEST 5, 12-15” LM BASS/ACRE/YR OPTIONAL – STOCK GIZZARD SHAD

WHAT ABOUT CRAPPIE! Stock 20 adult black crappie after largemouth bass are well established and the pond has a quality bluegill population There is some risk associated with stocking crappie, as they can stunt

FEEDING Sinking or floating Water Temps > 60 15 minute clean-up Maximum 20 lbs/acre/day

SUPPLEMENTAL STOCKING Channel catfish – Dependent upon harvest, number restocked = # harvested + 10%, must exceed 8” long Largemouth bass – Normally not necessary Bluegill – Normally not necessary

Corrective Stocking – No or Low Largemouth bass density Stock 50 8-12 inch largemouth bass per acre

Stunted Largemouth bass Enjoy the big bluegill ! Or implement a 12-15 slot length limit on largemouth bass, and harvest 30 8-12 inch bass/acre/year. May have to increase harvest rate to 50 bass/acre/year, if 30 does not work.
