well right now i am planning to have 7-9 acre pond the.
im planning it right now for it to be max depth at 12ft

when i was younger i used to love fish for bass and pickerel
i was wondering will the two predators survive and keep a balance in the pond
im also intrested in having pan fish like blue gill and redear


also my freind brought up the idea for a cold water pond with gravel and sand for small mouth bass
how would this work
what about food for them
