cat fish spawning areas - 08/10/17 03:45 PM
let me start by saying I am new to the site and nothing like a pond expert.
I do own one 2.5 acre pond and another 1.5 acer old pond that has had the levee broken for years (before I bought it) I just had the banks cleaned off and the levee repaired so now im just waiting for wet weather to fill it up, and in the spring my plan is to stock it with channel cat for stocking my freezer .
my question is; is there anything I can do fairly easily and with out breaking the bank to help in that goal? my first thought was to put some old plastic culverts in for spawning beds.
I left some of the old snags and logs in the bottom of the pond for cover but have been told these may be bad ideas. thanks for any help.
