Thanks Bill. I'm probably confusing the issue by talking about two different ponds in this thread. In my pond I'm willing to try RES without WM. I haven't seen the available RES fingerlings yet, but I've been told they're about 1.5 inches.

I've got to place my order in a few minutes so that I can pick it up on the way home. So far I'm thinking 100 RES fingerlings for my pond, and then I'll see what adult RES become available later.

I got the impression that the fish farmer likes to sell fish by the 100's so for Mr H's pond I'm thinking of getting 70RES/30WM.
