re: Spinoff-Putting crawfish in a pond

Ours was just kind of an epiphany. We were doing the dirt work as a primary objective. The original pond was half the size of the new one. We pumped it dry and saw that it in fact had no fish in it. We weren't sure before that, but never caught anything. Anyway, after we pumped it out, we needed the dirt and didn't have time to let it dry and dig deeper. So we just extended the levee and doubled the size leaving the average depth at 4 ft. or so.

Once it filled back up we were discussing stocking it, but it just wasn't really built for that. It's main purpose is to be a water source for cows. But after considering the size, depth, and our love of catching and eating crawfish, it was a no brainer on what to do.

Like I said, we shall see if it works, but I'm confident.
