Nice, Bloke.
I would do research at a local fishing geezer's hangout about what type fish would give you the most bang for the buck.
The lake looks great but in the video I hear either a babbling brook I couldn't see or you had your hose running-which was it?

bloke ... I may have to report your video as offensive . It's offensive to me because I don't have nice pond in my backyard and I am jealous !!

I'm a huge fan of Bluegill. I really enjoy catching a little fish that puts up such a good fight. Also, when I am fishing for them all I use is a little bread ball, so bait is pretty cheap as well.

Yeah, Bluegill are great! And don't be suprised if they just show up one day, via Schlep's method.

Pond doesn't look very big, so I'd say bluegill. Nothing like a bluegill or crappie on the end of a 3-4 weight fly rod after a hard day in the salt mines.

It's only c. 3 acres...' big enough for bass?

Sure is. Just didn't look that big from the picture.

Big enough for both bass and bluegill, I'd say. You need something for the bass to munch on anyway. Doc's advice about an extension agent is good. Just don't let any minnows in there.

Glad you found your corner stakes. One of mine got removed by a new neighbor apparently right around the time he chopped down one of my pine trees.

Some neighbors just don't know how to get off on the right foot.

to avoid poison ivy

If you get it, the thing I found (by accident) that works for me (cuz it grows all around my property, and the dog gets in it): Get in the shower with the water as hot as you can stand it (and then some ... you will adapt!). You will feel an intense itching when the hot water hits the skin with poison ivy and areas you didn't know were affected (but are going to be!) ; then the itch will slowly subside. Give it a good dose. The itching will stay away, possibly until shower time the next day. About 4 or 5 days of this, and it will be gone.

I'm curious about why this works. Maybe something about it disperses the histamine or something.

By the way: Do you plan to "fish" with magneto or dynamite?

I have done this also (the hot water on the poison ivy, not the dynamite!)and I think it works in the same thing as banging your head against the wall so it will feel better when you stop.....

Hey, What Doc Said!

Seriously, the nearest state university should have an extension service with all kinds of information and stuff to help you out, like the best fish to stock in your private nirvana. Enjoy!
