    One fairly small project I’d love to see is a butterfly garden out there. Probably have to wait untill spring, but you can buy native flower seeds and just toss the seeds out, in the winter. Milkweed would be a great option although they don’t flower the first year, they will attract monarch butterflies that will lay their eggs on them.

      Monarchs are all over Canada. I didn't know they would breed that far south. cool. I'm on their migratory path on the great Lakes and I definitely see less of then lately.

    Have you thought about stocking the pond with a wider variety of wildlife? You would create a healthier ecosystem and may be able to bring more native species to the area. Either this or incorporating more native environments to capture wildlife. Like planting large wildflower fields or snags.

  • @johnnevin7759
    @johnnevin7759 Рік тому +4

    I had a small pond and large tank for bass and also studied them for years, and my opinion on getting them to grow faster is that you could feed them thousands of minnows and they would slowly grow. However if I fed the bass a fish it could barely fit in its mouth and it had a difficult time getting down, it would suddenly grow much larger. I believe the bass has a mechanism in its brain which tells it must grow to eat the available food. I cannot prove this, but I do believe it. Your bass eating brim is going to really kick this off.

    You mentioned underwater tag scanners in the past to see swimming and migration patterns. Is there an update on that? That would be so awesome. Especially if you have many sensors you could create a live map of sorts and visualize the bass in the pond. That could be a fantastic web app as well, so fans could watch their favorite fish. That could be gamified too. I'd be willing to help with the programming too :)

    Been watching since your small pond was built in your backyard. I love seeing your progress and evolution.
    If you still have an availability to name a fish starting with the letter "T" it would be really cool to see a fish named: TRON
    You also asked for video suggestions. I really think it would be cool to see just how much work goes into this project from a 3rd person view.
    A good example of what I'm thinking is: Matt's Off Road Recovery. He literally videos his daily tasks and posts it on UA-cam.
    If you did a few videos showcasing with a 3rd person view I really think it could change things up for you a bit and give viewers a new angle.

    Future ideas. The aerial views show that small fish don't have many places to hide from the aggressive bass. In a natural lake or pond there is more vegetation for the prey items to shelter. How about creating an safe zone in a small section of the pond? Maybe a half circle of small mesh fencing from the shore? The prey items could still travel back and forth but the bass could not enter. The safe zone might allow the prey to build up their populations. Also it would be great to track down Bonnie and Clyde to see what they are up to.
