I got some pond water test kits I'm going to use this weekend. The cheap ones off amazon.
Ive found my Craw supplier- Toledo Goldfish. Ill be getting 300 and oredering for delivery later this month.
Minnows and shiners i'm ordering from Andersons minnows. Chose them because thjey also sell shiner FRY so I'm looking to get 10 lbs FHM 8lbs Rosie Minnows 10 lbs brooder sized Shiners 250k shiner fry All for around 1k, delivered in march as the water warms up for spawning. If I have the time I'm going to set up a grow out tank for ~ half those shiners.
Before the fish are delivered I want a minimum of another 30lbs of bass out of the pond, and to build out the "fish hacthery" area better with xmas trees and such after the holidays.
Other project is a pier or two... If buying the wood doesnt bankrupt me
Im going to ask a lot of questions, but only because I'm clueless
