Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Building a dam Pond Spillway

Git, I sent you a private message...As Kiko asked, are you stocking due to the timing of the pond building or waiting?

There will be little if any growth of your forage fish over winter and without a good food chain base, many may lose size over the winter or even die from starvation. We have a good Conservation Dept in Mo. but some of their ideas can leave you scratching your head asking "why do they say that?". A fall forage stocking with a spring predator stocking has virtually the same results as stocking everything at the same time in our climate.
