I definitely do not have any experience in this area. FWIW I would assume trout at 1 lb would be nice to have. Trout need cool water and lots of oxygen. Overstocking is a bad idea. IMO you would be aggressive in such a small body of water stocking 100 fingerlings if 50% survive you have 50. If the water is cold enough, you are willing to feed them pellets and aerate you might make it. 50 lbs of fish in a 1/20th acre pond is a lot. Hopefully, somebody that knows what the heck they are talking about (that's not me!) will weigh in!

No matter what, have fun with it!
