Keep as many as u want.

Sounds like you should keep everything you catch

I usually don't. Unless the owner says to.
But sacalait probably need to come out of there. If you want some decent bass. Probably need to take a lot of fish out if you want decent bass. How big is said pond?

I would say its about 2 acres

Yea, that's big but not huge. Probably ought to keep a good bit to get some room for fish to grow.
If that's what you're after, at least.

Thats what i was thinking. Preciate the input fellas

Everything. If you don't want to keep it then throw it on the bank. Probably already too late.

Keep every sacalait , every perch, and bass rule is 10-20 pounds per acre per year depending on fertilization.

We have a 4 acre pond and tell anyone who fishes it to take out all sac-a-lait and brim that they can catch

Sacalait are very bad about overpopulating a pond. I'd keep every one I felt like cleaning. You'll never get rid of them without nuking the pond.

We'll just have to disagree to agree.
I think rabbits multiply faster.
