I forget what you're plan for stocking it is. You can put minnows and bluegill in there now. Then when it's full and the water clears up and the plant life starts growing, you can put in your predator fish. It's too small of a pond for two predators, so it has to be a type of bass or a type of catfish. Depends on what you want to fish for. Or you can just have pan fish as your predator. Bluegill are what I have, but a lot of people really like to catch and eat Crappie

Woo-Hoo!

Guessing it's still a little early for 10# Bass??!!
Yeah probably. Hopefully I can stock it next spring, or at least start with fingerlings. Water at the moment is 3 ft tapering to 8ft as it reaches the dam.

Would like to do bluegill and bass.

Started working a bit yesterday piling some rocks along the waters edge in a few places for some additions fish structure. These all came from digging out the pond bottom on the redo work. Should put these at about 4 ft of depth when full.
