brownieman Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 The reason there can't be what they call 'undesirables' is the fish they stock especially the lmb and blg are so small they are easily eaten. One of the worst species to have in your pond or lake are Green Sunfish. They have a way of getting into water one would think isn't even possible. They don't grow very large but have one heck of an appetite and have large mouths for the size fish they are. All their pond stocking program requirements should be able to be found on their website I would think. later on bm My friends say I'm a douche bag ?? Avatar...mister brownie bm <><

They have ruined the lake where I do most of my warmwater fishing. The MDC sampled it, and found the bass to be "extremely stunted". They cited green sunfish as the primary reason. So I would try to keep them out, but like Brownieman says, they have an uncanny way of making it in to seemingly isolated waters even when not stocked.
denjac Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 About 20 years ago I helped a guy who has a large pond/small lake in Carthage. I put in Grand Lake blacks, Table rock blacks, and Stockton blacks over the course of the spring/summer. Talk about hard fighting fish! I believe it was the cross of the strains that did it, might be wrong but they sure fight hard. When I raced quarter horses we called it hybrid vigor, crossing out to completly differant familys.
