from a pond is waste, carrying away fertilizer
that has been applied to make food for

- growing fish. An ideal water supply keeps

the pond water from fluctuating with no
water leaving the pond. Make certain that
the soil will hold water. Avoid sites with

rocks sticking out along the bank or with

rock or shale ledges near the surface. Also
avoid sites having sand, gravel, peat, lime-
stone, or mar! through which the water might
seep.

- The pond should be constructed properly.
All trees and brush should be removed from
the pond site. The dam needs to be tied into
a good non-porous subsoil to prevent seepage.
Each pond needs a drain pipe to permit low-
ering the water level when repairs are
necessary, and to provide facilities for piping
water to stock-watering tanks or troughs.
The dam should have a spillway wide enough

to prevent the dam from washing away after
big rains.

Water should never pass over the spill-
way at a greater depth than 3 to 6 inches.
Pond edges all around the pond should be
deepened to at least 2 feet, and in ponds
where water will be used for irrigating crops,
edges should be deepened to 3 feet to prevent
the growth of underwater weeds.

KILL BRANCH FISH

All the rough fish or undesirable species
should be killed in the branch or spring
stream before the valve is closed and the
pond begins to collect water.

Next the pond must be stocked with the

proper kinds and numbers of fish in order
to produce good fishing. For best results. in
catch, stock with only bluegill bream and
largemouth bass: Use only hatchery reared
fish that are free from disease.

The reason for fertilizing fish ponds is to
increase the food supply of fish, to control
the growth of underwater weeds, and tomake
fishing more successful. The fertilizer formula
found to give the best results is an 8-8-2, that
is, a formula that contains 8% nitrogen,
8% phosphate, and 2% potash. Each surface
acre needs 100 pounds of fertilizer at each
application. Each pond should receive from
7 to 15 applications of fertilizer each year
starting in the spring and ending in the fall.

Fertilizing the pond produces a greenish
eolor in the water and ponds that are too
clear are in need of fertilization. A good rule
is to stick your arm into the water up to
your elbow. Tf you can see your outstretched
fingertips your pond needs fertilizing. :

It is very important to harvest properly
the fish crop. Removing as many fish as
