#17460, "Growing larger bass"


  

          

I have a small pond that has bass, bluegill, catfish, and crappie in it. The bass I have been catching look like they haven't eaten in 6 months. A bass I caught today should have weighed 7lbs, but only weighed 4lbs 2oz. Does anyone have any advise on what I can do to get these bass fatter, or to at least weigh what they should? The pond is not over populated with bass, so I don't think thats the problem. Any advise is appreciated. Thanks.

Mike

Where can I get a tagging kit. That would be a good idea to see how many bass there are. I have caught the same bass a couple times, because it has a specific marking so I know it was the same bass.

This is where I got mine....

http://www.floytag.com/

It cost about $160 for a tagging gun, an extra needle, and 100 tags.

I thought I was catching the same fish over and over but I guess I was wrong. Like you I know I have caught a couple of fish a bunch of time because of scars on the fish. I am really surprised that I haven't caught a tagged on yet.
