Hey Derek,
I don't have a pond yet, but have started doing some research and am finding this site great. A couple places you may want to try in Michigan that I have found that you haven't already mentioned.
Jacks Fish Farm,
[email protected], and they can email you a price list. They have hyb bluegill, channel cats, largemouth bass, rainbow trout, perch, walleye, and black crappie.
Just wondering if you had thought about Crappie and if the perch you have are jumbo perch?
And in your, or anyones experience, are hyb bluegill really that aggressive with nipping swimmers? When we dig our pond, I would like to put Hyb Bluegills in there but I would also like my wife to swim in the pond and if she is getting nipped by fish all the time I can kiss that idea goodbye.
Look forward to reading your progress, I am not that far from you, just a bit north of Ann Arbor.
