    Default Greers Ferry Nursery Pond Cove


    Man I love my job! Today Matt and I did a dive evaluation of the brush piles in Greers Ferry Nursery Pond outflow cove. All I can say is that the Mossback Megastructure sure does attract and hold fish. On this structure there were hundreds of bluegill, a few bass, a dozen crappie, and 2 15+ pound flatheads. Wow! The other structures had fish on them but not as much as the Mossback. Some of this is due to the depth of the structures. All structures (artificial and natural) had a good amount of algae growth. We will be putting around 100 large cedar trees in the cove over the next few weeks to give fingerling a place to hide from the predators when we release them from the NP. The attached video is of the Mossback Megastructure. Enjoy!

    Wow, great video. That was a nice flathead.
    Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

    Really nice video. We need more of those Mossback Megastructures. Is that a commercial product ?

    Yes, you can buy them. Look up Mossback Fish Rack. They donated these structures to us, so that we could monitor them over time and evaluate them.

    My summer intern had a rod in the truck and I just happen to have a few jigs in my truck. I got him rigged up and he caught a good crappie off the top of the Mossback. Unfortunately it got off before I could get me hands on it.

    I believe Ben Batten (Bigben7), the biologist over Maumelle, has put similar structures in Maumelle.
