This is a topic I am very interested in myself. I will be trying it with wild caught Brookies though. Going to try to capture all the water from several different seeps and two springs and bring it all in to the pond at one point. Hopefully help O2 levels as well. From what I have heard Brookies are my best shot at trout that will spawn. Luckily, there's a top secret mountain pond not far from us full of wild Brooks. It is fed by some kind of underground seep as you can't see any water coming in and very little flowing out but man it has some unbelievable Brooks in it and they spawn every year! Bad part is it isn't the easiest way in the world to stock fish.
