Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations How many fish should I take, and which ones?

All of the fish were stocked at the same time about 12 months ago. They were the species listed above. He did not remember how many of each, just several sacks of each from the "fish truck that comes down from Arkansas regularly". The pond probably has some other fish in it since it is over 40 years old in its current incarnation and several ponds are upstream and I am pretty sure a BG does not grow to 9" in 12 months. I am assuming all of the fish stocked were fingerlings or something very small, because he mentioned he could not fish it last year since the fish were to small to catch. This is the first time he has stocked it and he has owned it since the early '70's.
