Dergib if you are still looking for a fish supplier nearby have you called Fin Farm? They are located in Ridgeville Corners, OH, about an hour Southwest of Lambertville, MI. They have both FHM and GS. As of two or three weeks ago all their fish were still out in the ponds (I wanted some GS to go pike fishing but no one in the area has any large minnows).
As for the loss of fish goes, have you thought of otters yet? River otters have made a huge come back in the area and can wreak havoc on a pond. If they get into your pond, they can have it cleaned out in a matter of days. My uncle in SW OH used to raise freshwater prawns and blue gills until the otters found out about the "all you can eat shrimp and fish special" he had in his pond.
