My WE experience was not so great. I stocked about 10-15 of them at about 12" in length. Over the next two or three years, I caught a few of them, but they never got over, say, 15".

Smallies are my preferred game fish, and I stock adults whenever I can get them.

When we first bought our pond, we thought it was about 10 acres. Then, we revised down to the 6-7 acre range. I now think I'm at about 5 acres using some of the mapping softwares.

So, we have:
1) SMB
2) LMB
3) HSB
4) BG
5) BC
6) CC
7) WE (maybe some left)
8) YP
9) BH
10) GC
11) NP (at least one; don't know how he got in there)
12) Suckers
13) Rock Bass
14) Various Trout species (haven't caught one this year, yet)
