What size were the fish that you stocked?

Are you sure that there were no fish in the pond before you stocked the BG/RES/FHM? What methods were used to determine the fish population?

For a pond that size, with those goals, that is a very light stocking for forage fish. Greg Grimes has had great success in raising large LMB fast, but he's stocking 3,000 BG/RES per surface acre or a bit more than that, and only stocking 50 LMB per surface acre.

Are there fish in the 3/4 ac pond?
