Bluegill Stock Boosts Bass Growth in Farm Ponds
Iowa conservation fisheries biologists report rapid bass growth when bluegill spawn succeeds in farm ponds. Four months after stocking, largemouth fingerlings reach 10 inches as bluegill fry provide abundant forage. Poor bluegill spawning yields stunted bass between four and five inches. Kay Hill notes fall stocking of bluegill and catfish with spring bass gives bluegill time to mature, then bass grow rapidly once bluegill spawn in June.
