Comment by Magnolia Rick on October 27, 2010 at 4:49pm: sorry about the picture wind was blowing me around. Fat 9 1/2" long. Didn't weight him good fight. Caught him on a fly slow reeling top water hit.

Comment by Zach Pierce on October 26, 2010 at 5:29pm: I will be curious to see if any of your Tilapia over winter in your pond.

Comment by Magnolia Rick on October 26, 2010 at 4:45pm: Bass will keep both bass and gills in check. Big gill will eat bass fingerling too.

Comment by Magnolia Rick on October 26, 2010 at 4:44pm: I will pull any bass I catch over 16" long. As soon as I start seeing 10" gills I will pull any gill under 8" Large gill and small bass. Everything about 1 to 1 1/2 pounds. Just right for the grandkids to catch.

Comment by Zach Pierce on October 26, 2010 at 3:28pm: Rick you leaving all the small bass in there for now or have you started harvesting any yet.

I bet this time next year you will have 1000's of little bass in there, but I guess they will keep the 10000's bluegill in check.

Comment by Magnolia Rick on October 25, 2010 at 5:12pm: looking nice Sharon. Need to add some rye grass to the dam and the bank, Rye grass will grow fast and help hold it together. Grow will in the colder weather
