Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose Help me adopt my fish family

It's really too soon to tell if the SMB and LMB are both thriving together.

We're in our 11th year of owning this pond which had existing populations of LMB, Bluegill, Black Crappie, Yellow Perch, Bullheads, and other rough fish like white suckers.

I believe the pond had a 'natural balance' until I started messing with it about 6 years ago (after finding Pond Boss!).

Now we have:
1) LMB
2) SMB
3) HSB
4) BG
5) BC
6) YP
7) Walleye
8) CC (although I haven't ever caught or seen one)
9) Bullheads
10) Trout (some may have held over; RB, Brook, & Brown)
11) Rock Bass
12) Grass Carp (maybe)
** Still have rough fish like suckers plus fatheads & shiners.

I might be forgetting some also.

I think the biggest fish in there now are the SMB and the HSB, and maybe some lunker/lurker type CC.

Largest LMB I've ever seen caught was 22" and that was maybe 8-10 years back.

I don't believe that I have overpopulations of LMB.
