Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Creating habitat Help

It's going to be tough to get baitfish established in a pond with well established predators. If you've caught 3+ pound LMB out of there, getting baitfish to take hold is going to be a seriously difficult situation. Not necessarily impossible, but difficult, especially without habitat for them to hide in and avoid predation.

You raise a lot of great issues and it sounds like there is going to need to be a good bit of thought go into the answers. Sit tight and wait for feedback - as the others have said, this is the place to get the answers you need to move the project forward with the greatest chance of success.

By the way, best of luck on the project! I did mine about 26 years ago and have always been glad I earned the Eagle rank. And remember, it's never "I WAS an Eagle Scout." It's always "I AM an Eagle Scout!"
