With a pond that size, I would toss in 2 or 3 pounds of fatheads. That's about $20 to $30. Then I would catch all of the BG that the kids could catch and that I could haul. Then I would stock about fifty 4 to 6 inch channel cats. That's maybe another $25 to $50. Lusk says OK to stock cats with the forage.

That pond is too small to stock bass and WAY too small for crappie.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
