As with adding forage fish, it depends on size and type of existing fishery. It does not take lots of stockers if it is a new pond and stockers are allowed to reproduce before predators are added. IMO if predators exist it probably takes at LEAST 10 -100 times more; again it depends on amount of refugia habitat. Refugia habitat is NOT normal supplimentally added fish structure.
