Why should pond owners stock trout in their ponds?
Natural resources should be utilized to supplement a family’s food needs to provide healthy, contaminant-free food. While many folks utilize their land to grow a variety of garden vegetables or to raise their own meat for cheaper or organic reasons, so also should pond owners utilize their water resource to grow a low-fat, low cholesterol, high protein, heart-healthy fish product. By stocking 6″-8″ or larger trout in early spring and feeding them throughout the growing season, many nutritious meals may be enjoyed before ice cover and season’s end.
