Just under half acre pond, max depth 9-10 feet with a lot of the pond 6-7 feet deep...one side has a gradual bank. Pond is in the middle of the woods, water temp should not be a problem...will have aeration.

Located in central Ohio.

I have read many threads here and am looking to confirm that a SMB / YP with BG or RES is an efficient combination. I’d like to have some good eating fish along with some fun fish to catch for the kids.

Originally was just going to have LMB and BG but thought it would be good to have the above combination for food and fun....there isn’t really any SMB/YP ponds around me.

I have pebble to 1 inch rocks that I will add to the pond. Also have some thinned out painless needle Christmas trees to add.

Any major concerns of SMB with YP and BG...or switch out BG with RES?
