He wants to start a forage base. His water never gets over 59 degrees. What type of minnow would spawn in such a pond and make good forage for these types of fish. Smelt! Not technically a minnow of course. Doubt you'd get a viable population in the pond anyway. Why not stock with trout and feed pellets? I agree...might be a put and take pellet fed fishery which isn't a bad thing - sounds FAR simpler to achieve goals frankly without population metrics across multiple species to manage. Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. ~ Henry David Thoreau
