Plan before you stock

Iowa DNR identifies largemouth bass and bluegill as a core pond combination, with channel catfish as an additional option. Its guidance cautions against substituting hybrid sunfish for bluegill forage in new ponds. Ask how your existing population changes that plan.

Lake Master Pros brings 25 years of pond and lake experience to your questions. Call Bill at (800) 433-2950 with your pond size, location, current fish, and fishing goals.

Check stocking and shipping requirements

Review Iowa DNR’s pond guidance and ask the supplier and state fisheries staff about current species, import, and stocking requirements. Grass carp and specialized stocking plans deserve a separate review before you buy.
