Any reason to choose one of these for stocking a pond over the other? Taste, size, ability to survive in shallow water, etc.?
The pond is about 1/4 acre, 9' deep, and typically goes dry during droughts (about every other year around here). So I'm not going to a lot of trouble or expense to stock it. This year its full and weather appears wetter than normal so should have water in the pond for a couple of years.
Have access to both of these fish. Aim was to provide some limited fishing and keep mosquito populations down.
