Frequently Asked Questions

Get the answer you need below. If you can’t find them, reach out to us.

What types of fish can you stock in my pond?

We offer a variety of sport fish (like largemouth bass, bluegill, and catfish) and forage species (such as fathead minnows and golden shiners) based on your pond size, location, and fishing goals.

How do I know how many fish my pond needs?

Our team evaluates your pond’s size, depth, vegetation, and existing fish population to develop a custom stocking plan that ensures long-term balance and growth.

When is the best time of year to stock fish?

Spring and fall are ideal due to moderate water temperatures, but we stock year-round depending on species and regional conditions. We'll advise the best timing for your pond.

Do I need aeration before stocking fish?

While not always required, aeration greatly improves water quality and oxygen levels, leading to healthier fish and better survival rates, especially in warmer climates or deeper ponds.

Can fish stocking help reduce mosquito or midge populations?

Yes. Stocking forage fish that feed on larvae can naturally reduce mosquito and midge activity while supporting a balanced aquatic food chain.
