1/4 acre, IMO, isn't enough water for 100 channel cats, 4 or 5 big blues, fatheads and some bluegills. I think that you might be able to manage 100 pounds of fish per acre. You could easily run into an O2 shortage with these numbers.

After you start catching them, expect them to become narrow minded and hook shy when they hear your foot steps.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
