That’s one of the best informational videos I’ve come across. Thank You for not filling our time with a lot of fluff. So many TH-camrs love to hear themselves talk. Thanks again.
I'd love to have a 3-4 acre pond with a lot of trees and structure. max depth of 25ft. Rocky damn bank with a good drop off not too far out. lots of plant life.
forget the bass and let channel catfish be the top predator. People talk about shiners and bluegill as the first addition to a pond however it starts with vegetation, insects, crawfish, frogs and countless other forage for the fish that you eventually intend to harvest
grass carp have been very effective as a long term control . check your laws in your state to see if they are legal . not all states will let them in . we also have used koi, goldfish , and tilapia as control , these fish will reproduce so be careful to stock properly so they dont take over . tilapia will not survive temps below 50 degrees . grass carp are my number one choice
very good video. but i have one question. Whats some info on stocking hybrid stripers in ponds? our local fish farm has them and stripers are one of my favorite fish. just want some extra info. thanks
Do I stock ponds around the Utica area because my pond is doing very bad with almost no bluegill and lots of 9 inch bass no bass but about 12 Aimee's was looking into starting over any way to do that and get rid of those fish just have loots of questions because got this pond with the land and don't know much of what to do plese get back to me with some answers
The white amur is a terrible fish to stock if you feed your fish. The white amur will think you are feeding the pellets to them. At $59.00 per 50 lb bag of purina aquamax, the amurs will eat you out of house and home.
My friend and I are making a pond thats part of the creek right now its about 20ft by 4ft and maybe 2ft at deepest will that work for like 2 bass and 10 sunfish? We have lots of driftwood overhang and have liner to stop erosion along with moving water and roots for food. Will that work?
Devon Thompson if you have mucky water and not much vegetation do not stock bullhead they don’t eat big fish and big fish won’t eat them beside catfish. They can be become invasive if you water and shelter is right. Be careful with them imo
if you want to feed your blue gill optimal feed has a great blue gill feed . you can order it from optimal or get it from us . you need a small pellet loaded with good animal protein
You are a fool if you put carp in your pond. Might as well go buy a couple hundred minnows to throw in and maybe 500 goldfish from the carnival leftovers.

The rotifers and others need algi for food for bluegill
we have a 3' plecocostumus in our pond. cleans it up well but has started to eat fish. are carp the only veg feeders to get?

what about them trout?
thinking about putting them in pond
very good video. but i have one question. Whats some info on stocking hybrid stripers in ponds? our local fish farm has them and stripers are one of my favorite fish. just want some extra info. thanks
I usually stock in a combination with walleye when I stock crappie to keep the crappie population in check.
What about bluegill food
Excellent information, but wow you guys need some video stabilization software.
It's called a tripod
where can I buy them
There is no audio
It only works in the left earbud
Do I stock ponds around the Utica area because my pond is doing very bad with almost no bluegill and lots of 9 inch bass no bass but about 12 Aimee's was looking into starting over any way to do that and get rid of those fish just have loots of questions because got this pond with the land and don't know much of what to do plese get back to me with some answers
NO SOUND????
left earbud only
Can fhe. Bluegill get to big for the bass to eat ?
No, there's always a big enough bass that will eat it

Make it at least 7 ft deep then it will work
volume up please
how do you tell male bass from female bass?
You can't tell the difference without killing them.
You can sex a live fish. Don't listen to Justin
@@sickbassdrop At least I can't. Can you teach me how?
how bout small mouth bass walleye and bullhead
Devon Thompson if you have mucky water and not much vegetation do not stock bullhead they don’t eat big fish and big fish won’t eat them beside catfish. They can be become invasive if you water and shelter is right. Be careful with them imo
Water also gets to hot for walleye and small mouth bass need currents to survive
What do I feed bluegill?
if you want to feed your blue gill optimal feed has a great blue gill feed . you can order it from optimal or get it from us . you need a small pellet loaded with good animal protein
steve fender thanks
Uriel Barrera pellets or minnows
I have caught a 67lbs grass carp, they easily could get bigger
Fishing Harry you did not catch a 60 pound carp
Fishing Harry you are like 9
TheNatureChannel they can easily get 60 pounds in a farm pond
ive caught them upper 60s myself, a lot of fun
yeah, they never run out of energy to go on long hard runs
When is the best time to re stock a pond
Spring
Are bullhead catfish good for ponds?
no
If you like to eat bullheads and like to use cast nets and sienes then yes.

The algi needs vegitation to grow on
from Canada;
-hey dummy ;
.. why not use some real fish ... like Wall-eye , or Rainbow or Cut-Throat Trout;
or Sturgeon ?
''blue-gills'' ?
Because their to big for a pond. And most ponds in the USA are to shallow so the water gets to hot and they die
Most of America is to hot for walleye
