Trophy Fish Management
Question: What is pond fertilization?
Answer: “In some trophy fish management ponds, we use pond-specific fertilizers to produce a specific microalgae growth. Microalgae growth is used as a food source for new bream offspring or what are called fry . Providing this food source then improves recovery rates of these fry. More bream means more food for bass; the more food a bass eats, the heavier it will be. Fertilizing a pond is artificially creating the first building block of the pond food chain. So to put it simply, pond fertilizer produces fat bass.”
