Excerpt from Georgia Fish Pond Management
The State of Georgia has more than ponds that range in size from one to 200 acres. The cost of construction was between 30 and 35 millions of dollars. New ponds are being constructed at the rate of each year, even though many have been constructed poorly and in unmanageable locations.
For years fish conservation and production in this country have been largely a matter of passing laws and planting fish. In the past, people became accustomed to take their medical problems to a doctor, their legal problems to a lawyer, and their farm problems to the agricultural expert; but they didn't feel the need to take their fish problems to a fisheries man ager or biologist. As a result, they frequently got wrong answers. Some laws, passed without factual foundation, failed to serve their intended pur pose and oftentimes proved harmful.
