Posted By: Allmadness How many minnows to put into these ponds? - 09/07/11 04:20 PM
Pond 1 - 7 ac, Has LMB, BG, BC, GSF, HBG - LMB are 6-9'

Pond 2 - 1 ac, has LMB, BG, BC, HBG, GSF - LMB are 10-18'

Loking to add minnows, need to get a ball park for each pond.
1 gallons = 8.4 pounds or 1500 minnows

Will be adding them in the next week or 2.

Thanks for any advise.

What are the species and size of the minnows that are available?
Fat Heads - can get smaller and larger sized.

What are you trying to accomplish by stocking these FHM?

Unless you stock a LOT of FHM, they won't make it thru the winter - they will be a quick snack for the fish. When I say a LOT, I'm talking about 25#/acre or more.
Giving the fish something more to eat - Thank you for the numbers.
