Sport fishing is the primary purpose of many ponds in Georgia. With proper fisheries management techniques, even a small pond can produce trophy fish. One of the best ways to increase catch rates in your pond is by adding fish attractors. Fish attractors can include trees, brush piles, old tires, concrete blocks, etc. Bass and bream will instinctively congregate around anything in the water. Suitable fish attractors placed in proper locations around the pond can dramatically increase the number of fish you catch.

Many people believe adding cover to a pond will give fish fry (baby fish) a place to hide from predators, thus increasing the number of fish in the pond. This is simply not true. The only way to increase the numbers of fish in a pond is thorough feeding or a proper fertilization program. Fish attractors will not increase the numbers of fish in your pond. Fish attractors will help entice fish to certain locations in the pond. Knowing where to find the fish is half the battle.

Professional Pond Management can survey the pond bottom, create a depth profile, build and place fish attractors in the best locations in your pond.
