Your pond is about 3/4 acre. I would put in about 75 channel catfish and feed them pellets. I did that in my 1/4 acre ponds and have been harvesting channel catfish of 2 to 5 pounds since last fall, and the fish were first stocked 21 months ago. My mistake was too many catfish, and I have been forced to harvest a great many this summer, well over 60 pounds since mid June. The second 1/4 acre pond should be ready for harvesting by early next summer. We like to eat catfish.
