[QUOTE="Hduke86, post: 5852375, member: 18913"] First year needs to be catered to fish habitat and BAITFISH. Put structure in the pond and maybe a gravel area for spawning in a shallow end. I would specifically cater to building a robust population on breeding fathead minnows. The stocking of other fish is easy but start off on the lower end of a stocking ratio. Wooden pallets with cinder blocks on them in the shallow end are great places for minnows to lay eggs. Oh did I mention that BAITFISH only the fish year is the way to go. Also do you plan on aeration for the hot summer month with little rain? [/QUOTE]
