For that size of a pond, be sure to only put one type of predator fish in there. Copper Nose bluegill are probably the best choice for a feeder fish. Add some fathead minnow to keep the bluegill and your predator fish happy is a good idea too. Do you like catfish or bass? Channel cats would do better then blue cats. Large mouth bass need to be fished pretty regular to allow the blue gill to grow big enough to encourage the bass to grow. If not, you end up with a pond full of small bass. Rule of thumb is 100 pounds total weight of predator fish per acre of surface water. Figure 30 to 40 pounds for your pond size.
Thanks. When they are finished I plan to survey the pond with RTK GPS and make a 3D model to determine the exact size and volume. I will then start researching about the fish.
We are finished hauling off dirt - finally. I estimate we hauled off over 90 loads over dirt today - nearly 2,000 yards. Tomorrow they just have to do the shaping and finishing touches.
