Hello,
I need to stock a 2.5 acre pond that was drained approximately 2 years ago. I see small bluegill (2-3 inches) around the edge. I don’t plan to fertilize initially as I had allligator weed mechanically removed last summer. I don’t think there are any bass but, no way to know for certain. The goal is good all around fishing.
I would like black crappie and largemouth bass. What do you think about 500 bluegill / redear mix per acre. 50 bass per acre and 25 black crappie per acre (stocked in June)?
Also, planning on 20 grass carp per acre, or 50 total?
Any comments, thoughts or advice would be welcomed.
Thanks!
