Hi! This is my first post here and i have one main question. I live about 35 Miles west of Tulsa and i have two very nice farm ponds. They are both around 60 years old. I am a huge Walleye fan, but have never caught one (fairly uncommon in Oklahoma as we all know) I found a fish farm here that has Walleye and im wanting to stock some in one of my ponds, but im not sure how well they would do.
The first pond is about 0.75 of an acre, the water is very clean and the depth is about 11-14ft.
The other pond is around 2 acres, its water is quite a bit siltier, the depth is 20-25ft. It has very nice cover and some good shade. It has a rock dropoff where the water goes from 8-10ft straight down to 20-25ft (it was a waterfall before the pond was there) It has no algae or moss growing which i believe is a sign of good oxygen.
I should also mention there are Bluegill, Redear, Black Crappie, Channel Cats (up to 10lbs) and Largemouth (up to 5lbs).
The guy at the fish farm said that they would not reproduce (which is fine, ill keep stocking them) and that if there were enough minnows and other baitfish that they would do ok against the large mouth bass etc. I would go with the larger 9-12in walleye definitely. I wouldnt want them to be bass snacks....haha
Does anyone here have any tips or pointers? I really want to catch me one! Thanks!
(And im considering getting an aerator (if necessary) , any tips on which ones are best would be great. Thanks again!)
