DIY Pond Management App
Do-it-yourself Pond Management Has Never Been Easier
Just because you have a pond that is less than an acre, or live outside Pond King’s pond management service area, doesn’t mean you can’t optimize your pond for trophy-class bass. In fact, with Pond King’s Do-it-yourself Pond Management app, maintaining a healthy population of fish has never been easier … or more affordable.
Free Pond Management Tips from the Pros
Download the free version of the Pond King Pond Management App to get access to a host of free pond management tools and tips from Pond King's experienced pond management professionals.
The Fish Identification tool will not only help you determine which fish you already have in your pond, it will also explain how frequently they spawn. Armed with this information you'll be able to make an informed decision about which species you may want to consider harvesting and which you'll likely want to supplement. Next, take a look at Fish Stocking for more information about how size and species selection can influence the successful management of your fishery. Stocking the right size fish can mean the difference between establishing a broodstock or feeding your bass for a few days. |
Whether your goal is a healthy fish population, or monster bass, one aspect that is often overlooked is structure. All fish need cover for one reason or another, and whether you have a new tank, or an established fishery, you probably need some sort of habitat. The Habitat Selection Guide will help you determine which is most appropriate for your situation.
The Blog and Video Library is an excellent resource for information about a variety of specific pond management issues our biologist face on a regular basis. If you can't find the answer to your question here, we want to hear from you! It could be the topic of our next story.
The Bass-O-Meter is one of the most fun aspects of the DIY Pond Management App. With the free version, when you enter the weight and length of a bass you catch, the Bass-O-Meter returns it's relative weight ... with some colorful commentary. When you upgrade to the paid version, you'll be able to save the data so you can start to plot the overall health of your bass population.
A Custom Plan at a Fraction of the Cost
If your pond is less than an acre, an electrofishing survey just isn't very practical or cost effective. But, if you upgrade to the Premium Version for just $1.99 we can still help you take your pond management practices to the next level. With the Premium Version, you’ll be able to:
- Track and record the condition of multiple fish to see your population as a whole.
- See multiple graphs and keys that help you understand the data and strategies for population improvement. This is the main starting point of any lake management plan.
- Record at least 20 bass, and you’ll have the opportunity to purchase a detailed management plan at a fraction of what an onsite survey would cost. Just submit your data and complete a short survey to get a detailed management plan of action formulated by one of our fisheries biologists.
- All your reports will live in “My Stuff” so you can access your pond management reports, graphs, and plans all in one place.
