Dr-Stocktopus on July 4, 2026 9:41 pm Looks like a good size pond Have to be VERY careful about pulling/keeping big fish out though. Friend and I managed a pond (7-8 acres) for years and caught trophies regularly (see my PB pics in profile) And then a group got it in it and kept 20+ 5lbs. We didn’t catch anything 5lbs plus again for years.
