Coppernose and Minnows
Keeping your Pond Healthy
COPPERNOSE BLUEGILLCoppernose Bluegill are ideal for ponds where forage is a concern because they are usually 80% female. Coppernose Bluegill are aggressive but remain a low impact fish since their mouths are small.  An insufficient supply of coppernose can lead to a decline in the size of your bass population.  More information on Coppernose Bluegill CLICK HERE...
Fathead Minnows should be the most important fish in their management program. The Fathead Minnow is a plankton feeder, but it will also feed very actively on mosquito larva and on commercial feed. More information on Minnows CLICK HERE...
