Cecil and others are providing the best advice. With those low water temps combined with raising fish in such a small pond (0.1ac) and a with short water retention time (flow through), the only way you will would get any measurable production (fish lbs) is to raise trout and feed them pellets once or twice a day. Relying on natural foods including forage fish will result in a low standing crop and low carrying capacity. Walleye and SMB will grow very slowly in water that does not get above 59F. Stick with the trouts.
