If there was a fish kill, I’ve never found any evidence of one. I’ve seen very few, maybe a dozen, dead fish in the last 11 years. All smaller. I did find a spot on the dam this spring where something ate a large fish. At least the scales left behind were pretty big. Just the scales left behind, and only the one place. I mow pretty much every 2 weeks. I’m up there a bunch from mid October to mid December. Not so much during January and February. So maybe that’s when whatever happened happened.


12 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (decreasing), SMB, and HSB (only two have been seen in 5 yrs)
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
