The history of the pond is sort of muddy, some people said it was stocked in the past, some say it wasn't. The people who owned it before me are not in the area any more and I dont know how to contact them. The depth is around 40 ft and the shape is sort of like a pear. I know a half a day of fishing a pond with 4 guys can produce no bites or fish even if they are there, but we also did not witness any fish surfacing, jumping, or no smaller fish in the shallower waters. Just the minnors that were about a half an inch long. I plan to take a canoe out on the pond with a portable depth and fish finder to get exact measurements. I do know that at one time the pond was treated for weed and alge growth which back in teh 80s could have been a harsh chemical that killed off the fish if there were any in there before. But for the moment I am assuming no fish. What other type of information will I need before the first fish hits the water?
