I have an old pond on my property that was once used to water cattle it has not been used for anything for quite a while. Last year it dried up due to our drought but this year stayed full until I drained it. I have a couple of questions. It was full of lilly pads and so after draining it I weed eated them I assume they will be back.
what is the best way to kill them on dry land? I want to put in bluegill and shiners. Do they do well together? I can fill the pond with well water or water from the lake which Is better? The lake is much faster with a trash pump about eight hours. the well about two days.
