No minner stands in the area? I have never seen a total fish kill if any water is left. Fry always get in the skinny water that still has some oxygen. But with traps and lines not getting any, you may have done it.

Due to the pond size, consider Hybrid bluegills and hybrid stripers with a feeder. Restock as necessary. You'll have a ball with that combo.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
