How to Stock Your Pond for Spring

How to Stock Your Pond for Spring -  check out the catfish pictured here!Are you wondering how to stock your pond for spring? Spring warms up the water, waking up your pond’s ecosystem. It is the perfect time to stock fish. Adding new fish now helps them acclimate quickly and grow strong before the summer heat hits. A well-stocked pond provides great fishing and keeps your water healthy.

Catch the Fish Truck

You don’t need to travel far to find high-quality fish. The Arkansas Pondstockers fish truck visits our locations regularly. They bring healthy, lively fish directly to you.

Check our events calendar to see when the truck arrives at your local Farmer’s Co-op. They carry popular species like Channel Catfish, Largemouth Bass, Black Crappie, and Bluegill. You can also find Fathead Minnows to feed your larger game fish. Arrive early with your containers, or buy supplies right off the truck.

Prepare Your Water

Healthy fish need healthy water. Before you stock, you should assess your pond’s condition. Test the water quality to ensure pH levels are balanced.

If your pond has murky water or too much algae, we can help. We stock pond dyes to block sunlight and reduce weed growth. We also carry beneficial bacteria that break down sludge on the bottom. These simple steps create a clean environment where your new fish will thrive.

Feed for Growth

Fish need more than just natural food sources to reach trophy size. Supplement their diet with high-quality fish feed.

We offer floating fish food that makes feeding time fun. Watching your fish eat helps you monitor their health and growth rates. Consistent feeding ensures your bass and catfish get the protein they need to grow big and fight hard.
