It is a newly dug 1/10 acre pond 15' deep max, still filling with water. The goal is to have good fishing and I wouldn’t be upset if there were some trophy sized SMB in there.
I am planning on stocking this spring with Fatheads and a couple months later I will put in whatever is left of the 100 4-6" perch I am growing out inside. I am also planning on stocking 25-50 SMB if I can find them in MI. I have a couple sources lined up that said they might have some if they have a successful spawn.
It is due to the difficulties of finding a reliable source of SMB and being impatient for them to grow, that I was thinking about putting in some wild caught SMB. I was thinking I would quarantine them and treat them for parasites. Then after couple weeks (months?) I would release them into the pond and have some fun re-catching those SMB while I was waiting for the stocked SMB to grow out.
