NEVER, EVER stock crappie in a pond that small. Most conservation departments would recommend not doing it in any BOW less than 40 acres.

Our 6.5 acre BOW was bucket stocked with crappie decades ago and it is always a lot of work trying to keep their numbers down. We keep every crappie we catch.....every one.

He should save himself/herself many headaches and not stock BCP. But definitely gift a PB subscription! BM61.
