Check out this article on growing rice as a highly productive basis of forage. It's specific to crawdad production yet seems any vegatation that leads to an abundance of small invertebrates would benefit most ponds. web page

Thanks for link. I have thought about that b/f. Also has a major side benefit of attracting major waterfowl numbers.

I took a quick read through, makes sense. BUT, how would normal joe-shmo harvest dads? Whould you just use crawfish traps in you pond? Drain and hand pick? How about removing the rice?

Take a look at Bender's post, he might be able to provide info on the rice.
