I believe your CC should have made an appearance at the feeder. Mine have and I'm further North than you.

If they CNBG have been feeding, I expect that you have plenty. A very low % of the small fish go downstream.

If you can only get fingerling bass, I would probably put in about 75. Small fish have a pretty high mortality rate. If larger, I would stock less, maybe 35 or 40. Of this assumes that bass are your goal. If you are looking for larger sunfish, stock more predators to clobber the smaller ones.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
