I am wanting to stock a naturally spring feed pond with Trout or Bass, (THIS IS MY POND) the pond is approx 80' by 300' in surface area...but where can I get Trout/Bass to stock it.???? Also will I have to get permits and go though tons of red tape to do this???
Saukie, My wife's aunt owns Hornings Hideout in North Plains which has a pond for fishing. They have a special strain of trout and we were there last Sat and were catching 2-4lb trout. Look them up on the web.
Also call Bruce Harpole at the Oregon Fishing Club, they also purchase trout for stocking and can give you information.
Just tell them Keith sent you ! images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif

There is a trout farm in the Amboy WA area (local) that breeds some BIG big trout; exceptionally good brood stock. I don't remember the name of it but if you email lumpypie@aol.com, she can tell you. Remember that your pond will need some fairly deep water somewhere in it for the fish to survive for an extended period. You might consult with a OFG biologist on line as well.
