DOUBLE THE VALUE OF YOUR HUNTING LEASE
How To Catch 30 Bass An Hour Every Time You Go To
A Lake & How To Have 2-Pound Bluegills To Catch
We've
known for years that biologists can train bluegills to take pelleted feed
from an automatic feeder. In recent years, fishery scientists have trained
bass, also known as feeder bass, to also take pelleted feed. Now, when
a feeder goes off, containing a special mixture of high-protein mixed
feed pellets, bass and bream will go on a feeding spree, just like deer
will come to a spin feeder every time the feeder goes off. However, when
a fish feeder goes off, the bass not only eat the pelleted feed, but they
also eat the bream feeding the pelleted feed. After setting up several
feeders around your pond, then regardless of weather, wind or water conditions
or time of year, when the feeder goes off, bass and bream will bite.
My
oldest son, John, went fishing with his Uncle Archie at Archie's farm
pond, that Southeastern Pond Management takes care of, in February 2003,
on one of the coldest days of the year. I had little hope for them having
a successful bass-fishing trip. However, when my son arrived home, he
kept saying over and over again, "Dad, you just wouldn't believe it. We
caught more bass than I'd ever caught in my life. The weather was cold,
and the wind was blowing, but the bass were biting. I caught 2- to 4-pound
bass on almost every cast."
How To Take 30 Bass An Hour: If four automatic spin feeders
located around your pond go off at various times during the day, you can
have bass on a feeding spree all day. You certainly won't find catching
30 bass per hour a problem. But remember these bass and bream don't just
eat the pelleted feed. The bass feed off the bluegills and the threadfin
shad stocked in the lake. I've stood on my brother's dock, never getting
into a boat, and caught 30 bass consistently in an hour, every time I've
fished at his pond. These bass will weigh from 2- to 5-pounds each and
I'll catch a 6- to 7-pound bass about every other trip.
How
to Have 2-Pound Bluegills to Catch: Southeastern Pond Management stocks
coppernose bluegills into the ponds they manage. These bluegills, which
come from Florida, tend to grow faster than the common bluegill. This
genetically-superior bluegill grows even faster because it will eat pelleted
feed. For this reason, you can have catchable and eatable-sized bluegills
within 1-1/2 years after stocking and bluegills weighing up to 2-pounds
within 2 to 3 years after stocking. To keep the pond viable and producing,
you'll need to catch and eat a certain number of these bluegills every
year to make room for more.
