I almost caught at least one of every species of fish in the pond yesterday while throwing a small white twister tail on 1/16th oz. jighead.
Yellow Perch Bluegill Hybrid Bluegill Smallmouth Bass Hybrid Striped Bass
Didn't catch Redear Largemouth Bass Triploid Grass Carp Pumpkinseed (haven't caught any in a few years) Channel Catfish (if any are left in the pond)
The Yellow Perch were still carrying eggs.

Nope, I caught the last one out about 7 years ago. Pond is too small, only 1 1/4 acre when full.

His pond is around 5.75 acres and very deep. Seems to be okay. It all depeends on what he is managing the pond for. Have him keep track of the relative weights of the bass. They should be staying at 100 or better. Crappie spawn sooner than bass and can eat the bottom of the food chain before the bass can utilize it.
