He had a pond dug a little over a year ago and was supposed to be 20’ so we have have trout in there, Niagara Falls area, summers are fairly warm. Just did a depth check and it’s only around 15’ in middle. Trying to come up with a solution to make it deeper, other then emptying it. It’s roughly 150’ around right now. I was thinking of digging a 20’ section beside pond, maybe 75x75 or so and making it 20-25’ deep, and then joining them together. Does a pond usually need to be deep in the middle for trout, or is the side section being deep good enough for the trout? Would also be pretty far away from out dock where we normally fish, would the trout stay only in deep section or make it out near center towards dock also? Suggestions?
