My buddy just built a house on a 30+ year old fishing pond in Virginia. Within a year of living there the pond has produced (3) 10+lbs pigs.
Problem #1 - The pond is stunted. Other than those 3 massive bass, all fish caught are under 2 pounds or crappie.
Problem #2 - The pond can't be harvested. My buddy's Home Owner's Association (HOA) has a catch-and-release policy and members are strongly against changing the policy.
Questions -
How did you convince folks that killing a few fish is better than all fish starving?
Would you please share any articles or expertise we can use to arm my buddy for his next round with the HOA?
