I would really like to stock perch into my pond. I have exhausted all efforts to get perch for my pond in Ontario. Is there any way I can get fish stock cross border and is there stock available?

Here is an Email I did get from a supplier.

Hi Don, no this is a good time to stock them, but due to the issues I mentioned before, the only supplier in Ontario wasn’t even able to fill my order.

I had ordered 10,000 perch a year ago, was told in Sept that I was going to get ½, then in October when I was told I could come to get them, he estimated that I would be getting 3500.

Upon pickup of the fish I was told that only 1600 were available

I had 2500 sold, and 1 customer coming from Montreal to pick up 1100 and I had to ration fish so most of the people who had orders in got some.

I am going to try some breeding next year myself, but I can not make and guarantees

Sorry.

I wish I could help.

Only thing i could do is keep your email for next year and hope we have a better spring.



If I had have know this was going to be a problem I would have ordered my fish when I started digging.

Any help to save me a year with out any fish?

Cheers Don.
