the dam will fill it has about 1800 acres of drainage. Will just take some good running water. There is a dam right above it that was washed out and mostly silted in. I had that fixed to work as a silt trap and hopefully have cleaner water make it to the new dam. I am worried about having a stunted panfish population that is why I was wanting to start with FHM & crayfish then stock the predators and slowly introduce the panfish maybe I need to wait 3-4 years after predators to introduce the BCP BG. I don't expect to have a trophy fishery for all species but having some 3-4lb SMB and some eating sized panfish with the occasional WE would be nice.
