Profile Information
- What type of animal is a bluegill?
- 3 acre retention pond in my back yard. For 18 years it has had no management & little structure. Once the grass carp eliminated the weeds, the pond was just a big bath tub. For the past two years with the help of the Pond Boss Forum I have worked to reduce the trash fish, reduce the # of turtles, & increase the natural & artificial structure. The average BG that I catch has increased by an inch. The LMB are keeping the small BG in check. I regularly throw pellets to suppliment growth & health.

"High winds have plagued us the last five days but I had a short window yesterday morning so I jumped at the chance to splash a local creek"
"Today’s creek was negatively impacted from the last long duration low water event…19 total fish on the day of the May Full Moon, surprising"
"First time on the coastal marsh in 2026…it did not disappoint….falling wind tide early gave us a hot bite, wind shifted and shut them down"
