UPDATE***
We recently enlarged the pond to about an acre and a half. 2/3 of the pond is 2-4 ft deep and the rest is 4-12 ( very little of the pond is 10-12 ft)
Stocked with 10 lbs of minnows about 3 months ago. Lots of crawdads in the pond already.
Looking forward to stocking in the fall and still havent decided which route to go. I like the idea of HBG. Dumb question .. what is a CC?
