re: Adding crawfish to supplement a pond

When you add minnows add twice as many as you think you need. When I add them to my pond half get eaten immediately. They don't know where they are and the bass or any aggressive fish eat them immediately. I try to add them in an area different from where I typically feed them to give them a chance. I would recommend stocking bluegill and perch in the fall and bass in the spring. Start with 4-6" bass if you can to give them a better survival rate.

I wouldn't add any crawfish until the bass are sized to eat them. 12" or larger.
