Hello, I have a stocked pond at a family members ranch in Somis California, it about 70 yards by 50 yards with two docks. Vegetation grows I'm concentrated areas, with a large population of carp and koi, however we stocked about 2000 6 inch bass that are now about 10 to 11 inches now we just stocked thousands of baby koi so I would believe that a similar color to the koi would work best. However it used to be so easy to fish but recently I've been struggling tryin to find a very productive rig or lure. Any suggestions?

I know someone who stocked a farm pond with koi fish after the pond had already been stocked by the previous owner with largemouth bass and golden shiners.
I don't know why, but after several years, the pond no longer has any bass. Just koi fish, swimming in schools near the surface along the shoreline. Sad story.

Thanks, ya we have huge koi up to 4 ft they were placed in there by a whole sale koi sales men that needs more space for them, so they have been in there ever since I can remember. One time we had a great population of bluegill then introduce bass and they ate all the bluegill, then they had no prey to feed on so they went into decline. Now they are up in numbers and there are plenty of 1 to 1 and1/2 lbers there. I just need to find a productive lure that is productive. I've found topwater to be a very productive if the weather premits. Any help would be great

Reply to Primaries in PA and GAby rock ratStill counting the votes..... No one seems to have mentioned the mail in ballots. The same mail in ballots as in 2020, counted by probably the same people...
