Great site � to all involved here � first post. I�ve been reading the site for several weeks and ordered the magazine and one book (to get started).

After reading this site I�m amazed at how much there is to building a pond.

First round of questions:

1. Can anyone recommend a reputable �Pond Builder� in Southern Indiana? I live 20 minutes west of Louisville KY and plan on having a 2 to 4 acre pond built next summer.

2. Are redears stocked in my area (Close to Louisville KY)?

3. I�m leaning toward BG, Channels, and fatheads at first and then follow with F1s and Hybrid Striped bass the following spring. I also plan to put a couple of feeders. Anyway, would someone recommend a fish dealer for stocking?

Any and all advice is appreciated!
