Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations small pond>can i add catfish?

You could stock a few (8-12) catfish although they may not grow very fast in the Sturgis MI area unless they were fed on a regular basis. If you feed them you could probably stock 20-30 cats in 1/8 acre (150'x40'). Do not stock any cats less than 8" or better 10" long since you may have a 2 or 3 lb bass in there that would enjoy having some 6"-8" catfish in its belly.
