Well, the pond is finally full and it's time to put some fish in it. It is .5 acres and 8 foot deep in the center. Very little structure due to all the rain we got right after it was dug. The water is still muddy and will most likely require treatment to clear.

I am really considering stocking with Georgia Giants and Channel Catfish. Would also like to put some bass in it eventually. I plan on feeding some but mostly just for entertainment. I'm not planning on aerating the pond either.

Here are a few pics.







I have no real "goals" in mind. Just a pond that I can catch a few fish out of for a fish fry and of course letting the kids have some fun.

Please give me some suggestions at stocking rates and such as well as any other suggestions at what I may need to do.

Thanks
