My wife and I bought a new place last year and one of the big projects has been getting the 12 acre lake where we want it. We did a electro survey and DNA testing and they were all native Texas bass. So we brought the electro boat back out and wiped out all the bass.
After that, we brought in 3,000 coppernose bluegill, 300 pounds of fathead minnows and 200 Mozambique tilapia. We’ve also added several hundred pounds of crawfish.
Next came the bass. We brought in 100 1-3 pound pure F1s that were culled from a lake that has produced 14 pound bass.
We have added brush piles, lay overs, fish feeders, done a lot of chemical treatments, next up aeration. It’s been a fun project. The bonus flooded timber holds a PILE of wood ducks.
Here’s a bunch of pictures dating back to last year when we first bought the property. We are also in the process of completing our high fence, so I’ll have some deer pics soon.
