New Breed of Bass Have Been Stocked

 The new tiger bass is now in the lake. 2000 fish were stocked last week sized around one pound and some a little more. Each of these fish have been tagged with a wire tag, so if you catch one please carefully return it to the water. If enough money is raised, next year the plan is to stock more than 100,000 fingerling fish. In all years following that the stocking will be funded by the Wildlife Commission. Again this time, the fish were all released in the north end of the lake. Hopefully on the next stocking, consideration will be given to stocking some fish close to the south end of the lake. Donations are needed for next years stock. You can make a contribution by going to Lake Norman Legends Facebook group. It's going to take a lot of angler to contribute to raise the needed funds for the next stock of fish, They are asking for $80 but they will take whatever you offer. Please consider a contribution.

Shut-out

 Just realized yesterday that my blog had been blocked. I have never posted anything but fishing information so I didn't understand why I was blocked. Then I found out that my blog company had been purchased by another social media firm (name to be withheld).  In another social media outlet I have been posting a good deal of political dialog and maybe, just maybe that explains the shut-out. Well I guess I'm back on line again.

Fishing has been getting better in the last two weeks. Many of the bass caught have been small. That's a new issue since I have been catching big bass lately. Always something new on this lake. The new Tiger bass will be stocked within days now. If you catch one, it will have a wire tag so be sure to throw those back. Also consider a contribution the program since the next years stocking will depend on private funding. Good luck and stay safe.
