It’s time to stock your ponds!

Area pond owners have the opportunity to stock their ponds with fish through the Ottawa SWCD Fish Sale Program.

This is a convenient and low-cost way to stock or add to your current population. Fish orders will be accepted until Friday, May 5. Fender’s Fish Hatchery will bring their tank truck filled with fish on Thursday, May 18 from 1-2:30 p.m. to the Ottawa SWCD office to distribute the fish orders.

This year, customers can order online by visiting ottawaswcd.com. Individuals who order fish will be notified, reminding them of the pick-up time and date. They will need to bring their own container, filled with pond water.

A trash container (with a plastic trash liner) serves as an ideal container. A 5 to 10 gallon clean can is adequate for 100 fish.
