Greetings! We have a one year old newly constructed 8 acre pond south of Tulsa, OK. I have all the normal stockings of Bluegill, fatheads, golden shiners. I'd say way above normal numbers of baitfish stocked and doing well. I want to add crawfish to the mix. I've trapped a few here and there on other ponds on our property so they eventually will find a way to this new pond, but not in very good numbers.

Is it ok to jump start the crawfish population and have a couple sacks (50-60#) of live crawfish shipped in from one of the online Louisiana stores? I could even do a road trip to NW Louisiana and drive them 'home'.

During construction, We dumped several loads of concrete blocks that are now in 2 to 4 FOW. I think this would make excellent crawfish habitat.

Thanks for help.
