I took a stroll around the puddle this evening and found a bunch of small snails in the grass near the overflow. I'm in the process of acquiring 100 3-5" RES to put in the pond. This will be the first fish I've bought for stocking. Hopefully, this size fish will be big enough to avoid heavy predation by my three LMB.
Well crap, got an email reply from the only hatchery I'm aware of in Louisiana, and wouldn't you know it, they're not raising RES this year.
Anyone in Texas have a contact near the Louisiana border?
