For the 2nd year we stocked rainbow trout. After catching one in July, we decided there may just be enough cool water to keep them alive. We had an extremely wet 2013 Summer, which may have helped. ~8-10 inches each at $1.50 I thought $40 was worth having something to play with this Winter. They;re fun to feed, catch, and eat. BTW - Nice article in the most recent issue of Pond Boss Magazine.
