I'm a bit of a "prepper". I am developing my weekend property to be a bit of a safe haven in the event that I should ever need to support myself for any length of time. I have recently had a 1/2 acre pond over 14 feet deep put onto my land.
So for my "prepper pond" i am looking to stock some fish that require no outside input except what can be produced on my own land (although I can't image what that might be). And of course do not require restocking.
I am not looking for trophy fish or even fish that taste amazing. I just need some fish that will survive on their own without my help. I don't want a pond full of dead fish when I need them. I am, however, willing to fish it as much or as little as needed to manage the population if necessary.
I can't eat catfish but was told it will do very well in the pond on its own so if that's true, I'd like to stock it for other purposes. But for extra food, what would be a a good fish or combination of fish?
