BP, how you rig up the burlap?
find a black walnut tree and collect the ripe fruits which have thick green/black husks.
fill a burlap sack with the walnuts and husks mashing up some of the husks when you put them in. (they will stain your hands, clothes, and anything else you get them on)
tie sack closed with rope and tie rope to bank
toss in pond.
ALL FISH DEAD EVERYWHERE.

did not realize it had herbicidal properties either. neat

I couldn't figure out why my apple trees kept dying . . .
I have three large black walnuts around the camp. The state forester comes by every year and picks up the walnuts after they have fallen and uses them in their seedlings program. If anyone in Louisiana has ever purchased a black walnut seedling from the state, that might have come from me.

Back on topic, if there are goggle eye in the pond, I would kill everything and just start over with hybrid bream and bass.
Posted on 6/3/14 at 3:47 pm to TheDrunkenTigah
We used to throw out a hand full of floating fish feed and wait till they start bubbling on the surface hitting the feed. Then we'd throw a cast net.

My vote still goes for seining it. If it's a 1/2 acre pond, you'll catch a whole bunch of fish to eat when you seine. 99 times out of 100 there is a shiteload more stuff in ponds than people realize. Everyone says they know what's in their pond, but until you pull them all out you won't know. If you kill them all, you won't be eating them, then you'll be stuck with a crapload of dead fish in a pond.
Downside to the seining is you will catch all kinds of turtles and snakes. The fact that you have to get into the water where critters live eliminates 3/4 of the OB from trying it though. Where I live, we help seine for fun. It's a pretty good time. Some of the best times I had as a kid were seining farm ponds. The men would drag a seine of hundreds of fish on the bank, and us kids were in charge of sorting them into buckets and ice chests.

We used to seine Bayou Robert when I was a kid. It was a blast until I cut my foot wide arse open on a piece of glass or tin or somesuch.

Why's that? They're fun to catch, will they eat bass fingerlings or something?
Posted on 6/3/14 at 4:07 pm to AlxTgr
I have a few scars from it as well. I'd still do it again tomorrow. Feel like Jesus fishing like that.

I'm not opposed to it, but like I said draining isnt an option, and I would either have to buy or borrow a seine. It definitely would be interesting to see exactly what's in there though.

Because they are terrible to eat, at least in relation to bream and bass.
Any goggle eye I catch get a quick throw over the shoulder.

Killing the pond would show you what was in there too.
just sayin'
Posted on 6/3/14 at 4:24 pm to TigerDeacon
They are bad, but I don't think they overpopulate, and are fun to catch.
Posted on 6/3/14 at 4:29 pm to TigerDeacon
Gotcha. I've always heard they aren't that bad. They will have to stay either way, I'm pretty weary of using any chemical treatments on someone else's land. Last thing I want is to be blamed for a bunch of dead pine seedlings, even if the chemical I used had nothing to do with it.
Really this is just going to be more of a learning experience for me so that I know what to do on my own land down the road. I've been pointed in a few directions I wouldn't have thought of already.

Kill a turtle or a 4-point to eat and OB gets pissed about it. Kill an entire pond of fish to let them rot and stink-out everyone for a mile around just to experiment on how a man would manage his own pond one day IF he ever has one and it's fine I guess. At least try to find a way to shock them where you could dip them up and eat some of them.
