I see nothing wrong with a "whiskers-only" pond. However, if it was me, I wouldn't include bullheads. It would on!y be CC. They grow fast. They are fun to catch, and they are delicious. The main filets can be substituted for many other types of freshwater and saltwater fish.

Just yesterday, I used poached CC belies in place of lobster to make Maine-style lobster rolls. The bellies have a very similar texture and taste to lobster. They just have to be skinned on both the outside and inside before cooking.

I have one pond that is dedicated to channel cats, hybrid sunfish, and striped bass. It is a lot funfor everyone. It can supply dinner for a bunch of us on very short notice.
