Yes but to do trout without a spring running into the pond, one needs a well to keep the water cooler than 70F with dissolved oxygen top to bottom during the hottest summer days and months. Trout can be easily raised in a pond from early October to early June in Ohio. In June the cold water at the bottom of the pond looses dissolved oxygen and it forces the trout into the too warm water above.
Cecil - please tell us more about the LMbass that you raised in your larger pond in terms of pounds per acre, time of production, and final sizes at harvest. When we know those details we can use that data for raising HSB in a small pond.
