Forgot to post a pic of my other catch. He probably thinks that he's seeing his fate on the wall lol. Little 10" bass has eaten 7 shiners in 6 days as I'm using him to cycle the tank and letting him go Monday.

Hope he came from a private pond, never release a fish in to the wild from captivity unless it's a landlocked body of water that you have permission to. On a more positive note, what's the stock in that tank going to be?

False I started this in 09 and he stole my thread.....
Oh, I wasn't aware of that but looking back you're right. I didn't join until a couple years ago so I guess I just didn't notice. Were you inactive on the forums for a while? Perhaps that's why he started making the threads like I did this year since NC hasn't been posting for a while now.

Don't advise him not to keep undersized bass or anything. That's perfectly normal lololol

I love hearing this, it's like a broken record. I know it is illegal and unfair to the fish to live permanently in a tank. He was caught out of a 5 acre pond and going to be released in a bigger lake closer to my home. Because I catch these small guys in a lake with tilapia and I relocate a tony of them from there.

Been fishing that pond for 3 years, haven't gotten even a single fish above 2 lbs. they are constantly stunted and have no cover or food in the lake.

It's become my tradition with tanks this size to have a bass in there to study, watch and feed. And cheat on my cycling with a hardy fish and seeded media in the filter.
