My goal is to have a good all around fishing pond. I would like to have Crappie since that is what we like to eat, but from what I have read the pond will be to small. My plans are to stock it fist with about 5 lbs of minnows until it get more water in it. It is a spring feed pond that is getting about a � to a � inch of water ever day with no rain at all. There is about 80 acres that drain into to it so with a little rain it should fill up fairly quickly, and at that time I am looking at putting 200 Channel Catfish 100 4-6� and 100 6-8� since this is what we will probably harvest more often. Then 100 Bass 1-3�, 5lbs more minnows, 100 Copper nose Bluegill 1-3�, 100 Redear 1-3�. I was told that I could add these all at once, not sure if this part is correct or not? I have a small aerator that I will be placing in the pond and I plan on feeding up to a couple of pounds of food daily.
