Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations NY Forage Fish Help in Existing Pond

Thanks for the welcome Bill! That makes sense on removing one class smaller on the sunfish.

Golden shiners, gizzard shad and fat head minnows seem to be the only supplemental forage fish that I can find that'll handle the cold winters around here. I don't think the fat head minnows will be able to sustain in the pond due to all the predators. I've heard gizzard shad can get too big so kind of leaning towards the golden shiners. Any thoughts?
