Well my plans to renovate the pond this spring were...."adjusted" slightly. Shortly after my last post above we found out that number 2 was on the way. She was born happy and healthy just a couple weeks ago, but hospital bills mean the bank account isn't nearly as happy or as healthy. Through some more sampling (my little guy is 2 now and LOVES to feed, trap, and catch fish at the pond), I've figured out there is a strong population of various minnow species in the pond, from the FHM I stocked to GSH and Creek chubs from when the nearby creek flooded. I decided to stock some YP to give us some "desirable" fish species in there until we actually get the renovation done, supplier thought he would have them in this weekend along with a couple pounds of FHM. I figure I'll just have a fish fry when it gets time for the full redo!
