Stocking the pond with fish! Did Tractor Time with Tim make a mistake by ordering these fish together? Fish are not sponsored. We purchased them from Clear Creek Fisheries in Indiana.

Adding life to the pond is the way to go. The flat heads will be producing a lot of fry for the others to eat and soon you should see tadpoles from the frogs that found the pond. looks great.

@wallyzworld7108 День назад

You just rang the dinner bell for every Heron and Egret within flight distance. With all that nice open grass area around the pond, in about three years, buy a flyrod and you will have a ball catching those sunfish and small bass.

@Clawson_customs День назад

Kendall gray just built a pond a year ago or so and has been stocking it with fish also. He put a feeder on his pond so the fish get fed every day and they eat it like crazy every time it goes off. You should check out his channel to get ideas

@jakeschisler7525 День назад

The Red Ear doesn't reproduce but the rest will. Catching a nice large Bass is always great. We grew up in Illinois and we fished mostly for Bass. We caught some big Bass around 5 or more pounds. We moved to south Florida and it was a new experience because they get real big. Nothing like early morning or late evening tossing a buzz bait or spinner bait and have a large mouth Bass hit it. We also used a senko for fishing them. Have fun!

Exciting stuff…..cool to kick back and watch for fish. I must have missed an episode as it looks like you already have an aerator with diffuser going in mid of pond. Y’all should be set…. Now you need a small dock for hanging out over water. If like here, you would have a gator or two in there in no time.

@RobertBrothersJr-dc7nr День назад

Very nice video. I’m glad you stocked your pond. Your pond is absolutely beautiful. It turned out sooooooo good. All of your persistence really paid off.

Clear creek is where we stocked our pond from, as well. We also just stocked them all at once.

@HCH9990 День назад

Fantastic that the fish are finally in and it's fabulous that the grass carp are triploid so you won't have any breeding. (I'm sure this would be a requirement in a lot of US states given their invasive nature?) Grass carp get big (think easily over 30lb big) and whilst they are technically omnivores, your smaller fish should be OK as they have really small mouths for their size. They are oversold on their weed containing abilities though - but enjoy them when they bask in the warmer weather as all carp do, and if you hook one, hold on tight! Re the feeding - the bluegills and red ears are easy to train to come to food, but feed just a little at a time until they get bigger (and much more ravenous!) when you can increase the amount. Too much food will only add to the organic loading, which adds nutrients and thus your weed/algae growth. Think of it like farm fertilizer run off into rivers and ponds - which on this larger scale can lead to algae blooms and then when they die they release toxins, strip the oxygen out of the water and kill everything in the body of water. The toxins from algae die offs are literally some of the most powerful toxins known to man (no, I'm not making that up either - you can Google that to fact check me!)

Absolutely gorgeous pond

Nice new Blue Hereon buffet. Looking good.

@garycorrick День назад

I have a pond. When we bought the place the bass were all pretty small. Then I stocked with blue gill. The blue gill spawn every moon cycle in the summer and produce a lot of fry. My bass are growing now. Don't get any catfish. They eat a lot of fish.

@Itsa_Mea День назад

@@garycorrick so true on the catfish. I got cats last year. This year we had no survival of new fish. The catfish went from 2.5" little guys to 14" monsters. I still can't believe it.

@americannomad513 День назад

@81jlp День назад

The pond looks amazing! I followed from the beginning. Great job and congratulations on all your new fish.

@ryanfree9861 День назад

Not enough bluegill and too many bass IMO. The hybrid bluegill grow fast at first because of their larg mouths but with proper food the standard bluegill will outgrow the hybrids around year 3. The hybrid bluegill are also known to nip at swimmers. They are a failed attempt to commercialize bluegill for food production. I think you'll see very slow growth and little reproduction of the redears. I built my pond in Ohio myself over 20 years ago. It has bottom diffuser aeration and automatic feeder. It was a great addition to the property and has given years of enjoyment.

@andrewkirch5920 День назад

I agree, but an automatic bass feeder ought to reduce pressure on the bluegill.

@5077chip День назад

We use Aquatic Control from Seymour, IN to control our pond, their annual plans are very reasonable (if you want to go that route).

@williamgaines9784 День назад

Bass are voracious. They will eat anything alive that fits in their mouth, including each other(insert the Highlander's "There can be only one!"). Your bream are safe until the bass get big enough to swallow them. Water birds will bring additional fish and plants that's eggs and seeds cling to their legs and feathers. You might consider adding some cover for the baitfish. Good luck.🤞

@Southalabamaoutdoors День назад

Tim if you want those bass bluegill grow I'd put a solar pond feeder with protein pellet the smaller size ones and they will grow faster. Get some tiger bass from Southeastern pond management..

@TractorTimewithTim День назад

They said tiger bass won’t work here in colder climate. I bought a solar feeder.

@Southalabamaoutdoors День назад

@@TractorTimewithTim really OK..that's too bad

@mikehouser7587 День назад

Looking great! Only a fisheries biologist will know for sure on the mix with your acre ft of water and depth. Large Mouth Bass are fun to catch but not a great eater. Im in NE the land of 10k sandpits and bass / crappie are popular mixes but sure do like a good bluegill. No catfish? If the carp get out of control, which they can, are a blast to catch and is the #1 game fish in Europe. One man’s trash right? Lots of good carp recipes and always enjoy Granddads pickled carp in white wine. If you add any protective/breeding structure I would lean to man made materials… ye old Christmas Tree will only last a year or two at most. Teach a man to fish…. Best project I have seen in years! Be patient with the bass… you’ll have a 5lb er out there soon enough and I guarantee you’ll give it a name like Old Snageltooth or something like that.😊. You can always ask your bass fishing buddies up at the diner to bring you a couple nice ones for stalking.

@robertalbrecht1493 День назад

Tim, you need some air bubblers in that pond. Go on line to a company called the pond guy. Good peeps, they helped me with my 1 acre pond of 7 years old, no algae

@brianhillis3701 День назад

Air bubbles are inefficient. Get a fountain that sucks from near the bottom. That removes the low oxygen water and gets it aerated. Don't need to have a fountain into the air just a little or draining down over something like a pile of rocks. Consider putting in some shelter like a few cinder blocks in a couple of places at different depths. Christmas trees are great protection for the fry in spring. You will probably want some shaded areas too.

@TractorTimewithTim День назад

Guys. Please catch up. We have two aerator diffusers. Turned them off for a portion of the video due to the noise. We’ve shown them in the last 10 or so pond videos :-)

@musicgroopie1 День назад

Bluegill need good spawning beds and lots of trees and brush to hide in. A pond with no structure or habitat will suffer in the long term. A good fish pond needs ditches, drop offs, points, brush, grass, lillie pads , downed trees.

@johnragan3730 День назад

lol. I never trusted the fish farm advice that was SELLING the fish. I stocked fathead 6 months before bluegill and another 7 months before bass. I had literal swarms of fathead before the 2-3” bass got stocked. 1 month later I had zero. I’m on the gulf coast as well. Our bluegill and bass stay very active well into December in small ponds because of how hot the water can get. Your bluegill will be fine but the fathead will be gone very soon

@sinclairpages 22 часа назад

After I stocked my pond it took three year before they were of good size. Now after five years I have large fish. I do need to get three more grass carp. They do not keep up with keeping the pond grass down. My pond is 150 X 150 X 12. I wish the previous owner did NOT stock catfish. OH well I deal with it.

@DonnaFisher-u9l День назад

@ShadyOaksFarm 13 часов назад

Tim, you should have waited a year before stocking Bass. Should have stocked the forage first and then let them have multiple spawns. Bass needs 10 lbs of forage per year to grow 1 lb. Otherwise you will have stunted bass.

@rickvaughan8993 День назад

Just listen to the people you get chemicals from. They know when and what to use for all your vegetation issues. The algae is ongoing. I check my pond daily weather permitting. I see the filamentous algae starting as the size of a quarter. I spot spray these before they get a chance to spread. And I mean it spreads and grows quickly. And not to say anything bad about the young man that stocked the fish. But with owning and maintaining a 1/2 acre 14-foot-deep pond since 1993. I have never seen a grass carp consume filamentous algae. But they will eat the food you throw in for the other fish. I had one that lived from 2004 until this past year. I do believe a youngster could have taking a ride on that thing. HUGE!

@MrSnivvel День назад

So when are we going to see "Submarine Drone Time with Tim"?

@brucealvarez9263 День назад

"in this first batch" does that mean you are getting more or was that just the fish before the bagged fish?? I know it is a big pond but I wouldn't overstock. I got shiners and fathead minnows for my small pond after I dug it out and they have been reproducing ever since. Overfeeding the fish just causes rotting food, listen to Christy if you don't want to listen to the fish guy ;) Algae in my pond (like yours, no inflow other than rain and snow melt) seems to come and go, less when it rains a lot.

@TractorTimewithTim День назад

The bagged were the ‘second batch’. We’re done stocking.

@maxcarpenter2016 День назад

@TractorTimewithTim 7 часов назад

Maybe 10? Mostly pan fish…can’t tell which varieties. Hoping not the hybrids since they don’t reproduce.

@Itsa_Mea День назад

Overfeeding can be detrimental. Maybe not as much on your big pond but it was an issue on ours so we had to cut back. What we do is if any food is left after a couple minutes, it was too much. Again, maybe mot a big concern on your size pond.

@TractorTimewithTim День назад

How is over feeding detrimental?

@Itsa_Mea День назад

@@TractorTimewithTim my pond guy said it overfeeding creates Phosphates that will cause algae to take off.

Interesting video, Tim. My wife and I are blessed to aquire 10 acres with a half acre pond. Looking to do with our pond that you just did with yours. As far as tractors, I'm looking at what I can afford, something nearby for service and sales, and something that should be easy to operate. I'm considering the bad boy 4035ch with some implements to manage the 10 acres. Not set in stone, but do you think it is a worthy consideration? God Bless!

Wouldn’t have done hybrid. The red ear and blue gill would reproduce anyway. To give you the hybrid, they are super aggressive. Then minnows nah, should have gone for golden shiners. 🫡🍻
