The pond is .5 acres with year round aeration. I have a couple of dozen catfish up to 5 pounds and many bluegill close to a pound. Bass are around 1 - 2 pounds. I think I should do some fishing this spring to get some of the larger ones in the skillet to help the smaller fish out. For forage I put 8 lbs of minnows in last October but I haven't seend them since they hit the water. The pond is down in a hollar and I pum water from the creek on a regular basis. Greg Grimes has been out here a couple of years ago and brought me 150 bluegill. I added a few more last year probably around 50. The ducks are pretty aggressive and I need to know if duck waste creates food for the fish or could be toxic. The pond sits down low and has not warmed up yet for the spring.
