Currently we have a pond on our farm that is a little under an acre in size, it used to be a swampy area with reeds everywhere and we filled it to duck hunt over. The pond is about 5ft throughout the whole lake and about 10ft where the pipe is, is this too shallow? What all do I need to do to get this pond ready to stock it? forage, Feeders, Structure, Etc. My only concern on this pond is that the river is about 30yds on the other side of the damn and floods occasionally (every 5 years or so.) would I loose all of my fish if it flooded again?
