Pond Stocking

The five of us all enjoy fishing at our pond. We recently had it stocked with 400 Channel Catfish, 300 Coppernose Bream, 200 Native Blue Gill, and 150 Hybrid Crappie. Here the kiddos are waiting for the fish to come out of the pipe. Tayler is really something standing with her hands on her hips. Wonder where she got that pose from? Hmm
These are the Crappie.
The catfish were about 12 inches long . The kids have never experienced catching these before, the man that we purchased them from was very nice and showed the kids how to hold catfish and what parts to be careful of.
These were the only ones that hung around for a bit. We enjoy feeding the fish every other night. It doesn't take much to catch them now just a hook and a pole. You heard right just a hook, without bait. The kids have a blast! We have even eaten some bream for our first time ever in the 9 years of living here.
