The pond will be right under 1/2 acre when completed with a max depth of 15-16'. My original goal was to try a SM/YP/RES pond. . but then I found some of the RES I bought ended up being BG instead. I'm still planning on trying to go that route. Worst case scenario I can dump in some LMB and change over to a LMB/BG pond. Or at least that was my plan until I found these GSF.
Overall I'm not concerned about growing any trophy fish. I plan on feeding pellets and trying to raise a decent amount of plump YP/RES/BG for a couple fish frys a year with some larger predator fish mixed in as well. Mainly wanting a fun little fishing pond for the kiddos with ability to pull some meat out. I'd prefer to not catch a million 3-4" GSF when trying to catch some larger 6"+ panfish though.
