That is a good question. To be honest with you I did not know they were in there until two or three years ago. My stepdad built the pond over thirty years ago but I was already moved away and married. I was there when they brought some of the fish which came in trucks but I was not present when the fingerlings were set out. They came in styrofoam boxes and I just remember that there were a lot of them. I also know that he put in fifty fresh water eels but no one has caught any of them for twenty years or so. There seem to be a decent amount of crappie in there and they are bigger than the biggest blue gills but I do not know what type they are.

4.5 acre farm pond with sunfish, crappie, bass, catfish, turtles, and the occasional beaver (but we try to discourage that.
