We had this horrible drought back in '07 and between that, the blue-green algae we had up here (Lake Texoma stuff) and coon tail moss, I had over 100 (counted that many and quit) of my best bass and catfish die off.
I have since found the proper pond management chemicals and we have had some rain. Second the perch didn't die off and I have hundreds of them and third, last spring I planted 200 8-9" fingerling catfish.
Since all (apparently all) the large predators are gone, the perch and cats are prolyfic.
