How Many Fish To Stock Per Acre
You can cut these stocking numbers in half or down to 1/4, just keep the ratios (like 500 Bluegill for each 50 Bass (Half), or 25O Bluegill for each 25 Bass (1/4).
An acre is about the size of a Football Field, if you are not sure how to guess the size of your pond. If you need an accurate sizing, call our Office and ask for this service. We can use a Satellite Program to measure your pond/lake if it has an address near it.
You can call the Office to ask about stocking information. It’s a free service that we provide to thank our customers for their business. We appreciate our customers and try to show it.
If you are stocking for the first time, you want your fish to grow up together in a ratio that provides a food supply to the fish and for future harvesting for you. We urge you not to allow anyone to put adult fish in your pond. They will over-spawn it and eat your small breeding fish.
If your new pond is raw dirt with muddy water you should help the silt settle or wait until it does to add fish. Fish have a hard time finding food in muddy water.

THE FIRST STOCKING:
1000 Bluegill (Coppernose or Native)
