Wood - Tell us a little about your pond.
1. How big and max depth?.
2. What do you plan on stocking?
3. What seems to survive the harsh winters in ponds in your area?
4. Does anyone aerate around there to try and keep some open water during winter? Aerating during winter would cool the overall pond water under the ice below 39 degrees (4C) and cause additional stress to fish.
5. Is it feasable to keep snow off some of the pond during winter?
6. Any trees/woods in your parts or is it mostly open spaces?.

7. How far north of you are the closest eskimos?. WOW. You are almost to the NW Teritories.

You are probably "our" farthest north pond owner! Welcome to the question and answer pond forum.
