When I buy or build my pond within the next five years, I am going to line the entire bank with a rock rip rap. I would think that this would serve several purposes.
1. It should provide places for prey to lay eggs, grow big, and somewhat hide from predators.
2. It should reduce siltation/runoff.
3. It should lure predator fish in close to shore where they will be easy for you to track and catch.
My plan is to rent/borrow a truck and visit a creek or other such area and collect rocks to use for my pond banks. It will be a slow painful process, but I think it will be worth the work. Anyway, this is my 2 cents worth on this subject. If you decide to go with this idea, let me know how it goes. Good luck!
