We get a lot of calls from people asking if they can keep fish alive in their ponds. The answer is yes you can. We do live pond and stream stocking round.
We start stocking in Nov. as far south as north Florida. It is simple just keep a check on your water temp. When it drops below 69 it will keep dropping over the winter. You can stock trout in your pond or lake and catch them out for fresh trout on the table before the weather warms up in the spring. In South Carolina and Georgia the northern sections will support trout year-round. The western section of North Carolina will support trout year round also.
The size of your pond really does not matter it depends more on the water flow and the water temp. Most home owners will stock in spring and fall in the cooler climate areas and in the warmer areas they stock in Nov.
The rainbow trout is the most common for stocking. Stocking 200,000 lbs. per year place your order soon.

Attention
Stockers available year round place your orders.
90% of all trout in Western NC will not reproduce they have been genetically altered for rapid growth to meet the food market. This a huge problem if you're using these suppliers for your pond and stream stockings. The altered fish have a very short life span and are all female and have egg locking problems that cause death to the fish with in 2 years and sometimes a lot sooner. They start the egg lock at 1 3/4 lb in size. If you buy at 1 lb they die within the next 8 months. Even if your told they are all female getting male fish will not help them reproduce. Buy Triploids they have a long-life span. The Kamloops trout is also a good choice for stocking. For trout prices and delivery details please call 828-553-2217.
