Make sure you first have pH and other levels tested. Then stock with food chain fish like fathead minnows and small bluegill. Let them establish for about a year and then put your bass in.

For cover use old tires wired together, stone structure, bricks, cinder block, etc. I would avoid wood skids as they will be a problem when they rot. Also the nails can be a hazard too.
