Sorry for the duplication. Just putting this project here for future reference.


I am building a fish holding pin that measures 3' x 3' x 6'. It will stand on end allowing the fish to drop to 5'-6' depth.

I am wanting to hold fish in this pin for several days or up to a week until I get ready to eat them. Total depth of the water in this area is 8' and will be shaded by the dock from the afternoon sun.

How long can I expect to keep them healthy without feeding them? This area is abundent minnows, brim and bugs.



Target species will be BC and maybe a few brim. Would like to stock maybe a dozen fish at a time.
