Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose New Pond Stocking Strategy

Hi Joker, Happy Easter.
Sorry for the late response but I waited for others to advise on stocking rates dependent upon your water source.

I am familiar with your area and would like to revisit your water source comments.
From your pictures it raises questions in my mind as to whether your water source is a spring only source, or is your pond actually fed by the major aquifer associated with the Arkansas River?
If so, others can advise better than I, but if your pond is associated with a major aquifer, would this not be the same as a �flow thru� water source?

Nice area � many beautiful homes and ponds in some of the new Witchita developments.
Good luck and keep up the pictures.

PS: After noting the fly fishing picure, if your water source has high enough alkalinity, I would stock non-reproductive species with a good feeding program....
