    Default Fish farm


    I have a pond under construction right now. Is there a list somewhere of fish farms I can buy fingerlings from to stock it when it's full? I'm in Coffey county

    Thanks. Didn't realize Leonard had fish. As the crow flies he is only 3 miles away.

    I have personal experience with Wallace Fish Farms up in Allen KS. They will go anywhere to deliver fish. We use him to stock every other year in our 250 acre lake. He always gives us more fish than what we pay for.

    There's also Culver's in McPherson. Culver's Fish Farm
    It's further away from you that Wallace the way it looks.

    We're getting ready to stock some of our ponds out west that went dry the last few years and finally filled back up. The way it sounds the best route to go is to get a bluegill and fathead minnow population established for a year or so before you put in any predators. Craig and/or the guys at the fish farms will have some insight on this as well.

    Good luck

    So I talked to Wallace a month ago. Due to my pond size he is recommending hybrid bluegill and channel cats. Pond filled about 1/4 full with the rain today. Gonna call about fatheads if we get more rain.
