Freshwater prawns don't require brackish water, heck; we have freshwater prawns in the concrete irrigation canals in central California and prawns are often cultivated in the rice paddies in central and northern California. Those mosquito fish were likely decimating any freshly hatched prawn larva. If you want the prawns to breed successfully, they'll need cover of some sort for the larva to hide in.

As a fisherman and a scientist, I am addicted to your videos. I could fish and tag fish all day. It would make my day if you graph the data and show a geotagged map of the pond. Keep posting.

You just popped up on my feed. Youuuuuu sonofabisch..... 20 minutes and I do believe I'm as hooked as your aggressive bass. Wild project, beautiful scenery, attention to detail, and all around pure relaxing entertainment. Thank you!

Those two falcons are definitely Kestrels. You can tell by the bluish grey on their wings. They are tiny falcons that basically only eat small song birds or insects. We have a few at are sanctuary. Super cool little birds. They're like 100ish grams so they are tiny. The males have more bluish grey so you can tell which one is which. Also the females are slightly bigger than the males, like most raptors. Super cool to see though. Love the natural wildlife videos! Keep it up!

You should reach out to native habitat project (guy is located in Alabama I think). He is really passionate about restoring native prairies and wildlife populations. Since you like doing experiments and such, you could maybe do a small plot of native, no mow prairie and see how different it is than planting the food plots for your deer and wildlife.

Something to note, the owl at 24:10 was a barred owl. But the owls you usually see on the pond are great horned owls. Pretty neat.

Those fresh water prawns are some of the best eating shrimp there is.

I always look forward to 5-acre pond updates!

The birds you saw are kestrels they just have a thing known as ocelli which give them those false eyes on the back of their heads. The feet have different colors that can vary based on location, diet, sex, age and genetics I fixed my comment based on reply, thanks for the clarifications.

Definitely move him to the aquascape pond then feed him protein pellets and other protein packed meals as much as you can. It would be interesting to see how quickly he'd grow compared to the other bass.

The fishing and tracking weights is really great - I could watch an hr of this easily

I love the drone shots of the bass feeding, It is always cool to watch new bits of nature you have never seen before

Those bass are GROWING! Nice to see. Love the methodical, disciplined approach you've taken to this project. It's become quite the experiment and makes for damned good entertainment.

You have a great shot of a kestral. It is only about 1/3 the size of a peregrine and quite a bit more colorful. Love your videos.

You should have an underwater scanner at the dock always active to see what bass swims by.
@fellowduck3479 hace 7 meses

You should test using a white colored lure mimicking tilapia and a bluegill colored lure and see which is more effective. Love the progress

it would be intersting to see some of those shrimp in a fish tank and see if the eggs do hatch.

I love seeing updates on the pond. I live in GA and i hope to be able to do something like this at some point in time. Just a serene pond to relax at and harvest from time to time.
