The pond was dug in Sept 05 and was completely filled by Dec 05. I stocked 500 BG, 25 Re, 50 CC, and 12 LMB spring of 06. I had around 150 BG die in 06. The pond has done good all last year with no major problems with FA until now. Naturally all species have now spawned, so I have no ideal how many LMB or any other species I have now. I feed the fish pellets so their growth is good, and when fishing for bass we catch small 6-10" and some of the larger ones that was adding with the stocking of 06. My neighbor has told me he fertilizers every spring. We have not havested any of the fish caught, just release them back to the pond.
