I just recently purchased a house that has a pond on the property and have a few questions about it.
Please look at the picture provided of a google earth photo of the pond so you can get reference of what I'm talking about.
This ponds stretches over a couple of peoples property and would like to know the best way to go about stocking this thing.
Its a naturally fed pond that gets water year round. The dam where the water enters I own and is a cement bridge with some metal covert pipes supplying the water. The exit Dame is on my neighbors property(Who I haven't met yet). I do not know if the exit dam is fenced off yet.
Would it be worth it to stock bluegill and channel catfish, even though some could travel out of the exit dam?
Will the fish stick around if i supply food or if they have enough to eat?
Would it be worth it to dam up the pond right at my neighbors property or should I keep, this will probably depend on if he is cool or not and wants to fish?
The Pond is anywhere from 2-4 ft deep, would it be good of me to use my backhoe and dig deeper spots where I plan to fish?
Any suggestions on what you would do with this. Its a amazing pond and full of bullfrogs, doesn't look like there was much fish, but i don't believe it has ever been stocked. Its truly beautiful just want to be able to fish it.
Thank you for anyone who has comments or suggestions.
