107 Passengers In A Mini

Continuing our pond cleanup efforts, we loaded up the Mini with a bunch of workers to help keep the algae at bay....105 to be exact, plus me and Joel.

Yes--it was Fish Day at the Co-Op, and we brought home 50 catfish, 50 Bluegill and 5 Triploid Grass Carp. In the fall, we will pick up 25 Bass, and our pond will be completely re-stocked.

I found it extremely difficult to photograph bagged fish, so to explain, the Bluegill and Catfish are sharing a bag--they are each between 2 to 2.5" long.

The 5 Triploid Grass Carp are in their own bag. They are already 6 to 8" long. They all seemed happy to be released into the pond, and on to their new life.

Bonus--the pond surface is COMPLETELY clear now.
