My main concern is not getting the right number of fish in there. If I stock for the water that is there now it will hopefully double in the next few months and then wouldn’t I be under stocked? Also wondering how much food is in there for the little fish to eat since it is basically just murky water right now. I had thought about minnows now and then pan fish in the fall and predators a year from now. Any idea what bonus fish might be able to work in there if it is 15+ ft deep in 1/2 an acre?
Have you considered a feeder for the bait fish? Guaranteed boost in food. We have one and absolutely love seeing the results....it's like having piranhas.
