I think you guys should back off Jimmy Houston. What the heck's the difference in shooting deer in an enclosed area, and catching a record or near record bass from a pond, not a dang thang. But pond fishing is fine, stockinng bass in a secluded area, let them grow, catch them and say HEY i CAUGHT A 9 LB BASS MAN, its amazing how someone notices the negatives of all successful persons, and do not elaborate on the positives.
No offense intended, but its nothing different from fishing a pond that many like to do.
