Yep, I would stock them in the spring if I had hopes of them reproducing. I stocked the GSH and FHM now for two reasons. First, to act as diversions to help keep my new WE from being targeted hard right away by the larger predators already in the pond and second, to provide a little winter forage for the new WE as well as the existing herd. Maybe take a little pressure off the BG for a while as well. It would be a pleasant, though unexpected, bonus if any minnows survive to reproduce in the spring! smile
