Finally getting some rain and pond starting to fill up. Now on to stocking. I've been reading posts on here but have a few questions. What is the best forage fish in Arkansas, pond will be about 4 acres when full and depth at the Dam is 16' and averages 7' over two acres. The upper 2 acres is 4 to 5'. With the drought like we had this year I could lose 3 to 4 feet but most years 2 to 3'. I want this to be a LMB and blue gill pond. The pond now is about 3' over what the pics below show and about 6' from full. Are fat heads good in Arkansas? I read a few posts that made me think they were better suited in Northern climates. Can I stock blue gill at the same time? When could I add adult blue gill and red ear, those and sunfish are plentiful in the area lakes. When do you add the LMB? I posted these pictures earlier and thought they went to the gallery and you then uploaded from the gallery to the post. I don't know I may be getting it mixed up with another forum. My apologies if these post twice and please let me know.
