As CJ mentions since you only have 1/10 ac you will have to stock specialty fish similar to his suggestions because you can't feasibly or easily raise very many fish in 0.1 ac. essentially because in my opinion you don't want them spawning because it would very easy to end up with too many too small fish for angler fun.

Keep in mind that the trout will be an annual fall stocking and will not survive past early to mid June due to too warm water. But if you stock (late Sept, early Oct) larger ones (12"-14") and maybe 25-40 they would grow 3"-4" by June and be fun fishing whenever you wanted. There are some trout farms within 2-3 hrs of you. This place has good trout fairly close to you: Licking County, Brandt Trout Hatchery.

Fenders Fish and Llama Farm (Coshocton Co.) has larger trout in the fall. Check to see if they have a fall delivery near you.
See this for the list of fish farms/sellers by County in Ohio.

I suggest that you get second or third opinions of pros and cons of fish choices from those here before deciding on a final plan.
