Hey guys - my first post. I have experience with a 1/2 acre warmwater pond I built on my property with largemouth and hybrid bluegill, but I want to build a coldwater pond for trout. I have been told I will need to install a well with a "high flow" water pump.
My pond site will be at least 100 by 50. I think I understand the need for depth and cold aerated water. I have no clue what expense is involved with such a project (not the pond construction itself - but the well/pump issues!). My place is in southern WI. Any advice on pump size, ballpark costs, etc?
I appreciate your advice - very cool forum I just stumbled on!
Thanks.
