Hello y’all...Yet another new member here. My name’s Joe. Screen name’s pronounced “Pah-tah-sah” which means BREAM in Cajun French. Dug my 1 acre pond in November of 2016 to use the heavy clay soil to build up foundations for a new home and a work shop. Pond’s 13ft deep and has 3 shallower ledges dropping down to the middle. I’ve built/incorporated lots of pvc and natural structure and placed it in. Been waiting patiently since then for mother nature to give me enough water to stock my fish. Well, yesterday was the day. Put 1000 coppernose, 300 redear(aka chinquapin), and about 1000 fathead minnows. I’ve been lurking here for the last year, and figured I’d register to say thanks for all of the great info and knowledge. Looking forward to posting many pics of my pond and fish.

Welcome Stickem, I am not to far from you. I am in Jennings. It's really fun watching them grow. I am fixing to work on getting my pond clear. Mine is like yours as in a lot of clay so it has suspended clay which makes it dirty.
1 1/4 acre L shaped pond, 6 to 9 ft deep. Finished 7/7/16. Stocked with LMB, HBG, BG, CNBG, RES, FHM. Can't wait to fish it. GO SAINTS!!!
