This FISH is going to SAVE my BASS POND! (Stocking Fish)

NEW?!?! SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL: bit.ly/3j9UlFg
The bass pond has a problem and I have come up with a plan to save it. I am going to add fish to help me get my pond vegetation under control. This is only part of the fix for the pond but it is a start.

Great video sir. I hope it helps your pond or lake out. Thanks and appreciate all you do.

[@robertb1417]

Thay take forever I have 4 in my pond and I have a lot of grass in my pond keep it up and thank you

[@Shanester66]

We try to cull out as many as possible but they are not easy to catch conventionally so in the summer when they hang on the surface we harvest as many as we can with a crossbow.

[@DenverSurvival]

Good luck! I'd love to do something like this

[@BASSnBEER]

We put 7 Grass carp in our pond i'd say 30 years ago, theres one left and it looks like a dinosaur, its massive im not sure how long they live or what happened to the others but we have never had any issues with grass, we also got ones that could not reproduce

[@aarondavis8224]

Invest in a bow fishing setup. Those carp breed like crazy. 10 will turn into 200 before you know it. They will take over that pond

[@B_the_Cameraman]

I have to disagree. Grass carp will not reproduce in stagnant water. They only spawn in flowing water with temps between 68-86. I do think they will grow fast and large. We will handle that when that time comes

[@256bassfishing]

I made the mistake of putting in grass carp in my pond many years ago. They slowly started to dominate the pond and eventually I had to take my bow and kill as many as I could because they outgrew the pond pretty quickly and the bass suffered especially during spawn. My dad and I got several to manage the grass that were the same size as you got. Within two years they were about 20 lbs. They would eat the eggs of both the bass and gills and their population wasn't sustainable any longer. However, my pond was only 3/4 acre and 8 feet deep for the most part with some holes that were 10 ft deep.

Those are gonna be sooo helpful nice video

[@devindipiazza1838]

Great vid!!!

[@danuellewalker8587]

I still really want to put some bait fish in mine. Probably will this coming spring before it warms up

[@gabbingwithgabby8301]

Can’t hold your carp Brett. Hahaha

[@anglingpassion5039]

Nice video man

[@RayofFishing]

Just remember they will breed into more and you may have more then you need at that point

[@B_the_Cameraman]

They need flowing water to breed

[@chrisdowers3392]

another banger bro

[@Shanester66]

Be careful how many of those you put in. They did the exact same thing in my local lake to thin out all the grass. Problem is, they put in to many and 18 years later they are all like 30-50lbs each and completely decimated the grass in the lake. Now there is random grass and a flat silty bottom.

[@B_the_Cameraman]

They recommend 5-10 per acre. We put in 10 for a 2.25acre pond

[@Shanester66]

@@B_the_Cameraman They get gigantic. The last one I harvested was 52lbs...no bullshit. Had to get my salt water scale to weigh him. I shot a fiberglass arrow through him and used it to hoist him from my boat over the railing of my dock to a friend. His weight snapped the arrow.

[@Filthy_PhilDance]

Man can I come fish? Turkey creek is a struggle these days. I promise catch and release.

[@Mjones8383]

I'm with Chris on this 1, I don't see enough grass to worry about. If it was matted up everywhere then yes but I don't think those carp will hurt anything

[@B_the_Cameraman]

I have footage on the edit room floor to say otherwise. As I said during the live it turns out it is not grass. Grass carp will eat it but it is a concern because it can quickly overtake a pond. More vids coming that might change your mind

[@Mjones8383]

Is it muskweed or chara

[@B_the_Cameraman]

Those are the same thing

[@nickclowdus3116]

Nice vid

[@SCYCOFISHINGHUNTING]

That’s cool. I just caught my first carp today! I’ll send you a picture after I’m done watching. It was a 30 incher

[@blackflycreations]

Great pond video! Carp can be fun to catch especially on a fly rod. I hope they help out your pond! Happy to support your channel!😊#Blackflycreations

[@felipereno7633]

Hopefully this helps.

[@truthpurveyor8298]

I have to say, I think it's a bad idea, but a .22 will take them out easy

[@B_the_Cameraman]

State biologist would disagree with you

[@truthpurveyor8298]

@@B_the_Cameraman That's just because they don't let biologists use a gun :)

[@chriscumbest6873]

👍👍

[@randyclamhammer]

Brett what's your thoughts on the piscifun spark pro? Thinking about picking one up. Thanks

[@B_the_Cameraman]

It is really good for lighter baits. Smaller cranks, spy baits, smaller jerk baits. Think of it as a really good in-between of spinning setup and traditional baitcaster. It is considers a baitcast finesse reel

[@randyclamhammer]

@@B_the_Cameraman Sold much appreciated!

[@B_the_Cameraman]

@@randyclamhammer yes sir

[@Mjones8383]

Does that place sell baitfish too. If so where is it.

[@B_the_Cameraman]

Just bluegill.

Do them carp eat bass

[@B_the_Cameraman]

No sir
