Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Raising Forage and Bait Releasing fathead minnows through the Ice??

So my pond has now filled and in the spring I am planning on stocking the pond with BG, BGH, Shell Crackers, CC, LMB,and possibly some pearch. I have been doing some reading on here and the best I can tell that as soon as the ice is off I can start putting fish in there. What I was thinking about doing now that the ice is still on the pond is releasing fathead minnows into the pond through Ice auger holes? Didnt come across anything thing like this in my readings? Any thoughts on this? pros? cons? good idea? bad idea? I would like to know. will try to post pics of the pond all filled up.
