    The idea of putting two genetically gifted larger bass in the smaller pond to have them breed and then flushing all of their fry into the 5 acre is a really interesting idea and I would be interested to see if you could notice a change in the size growth rate of those fry to the fry you originally stocked and have gather information on.

    It would be really cool to see you build the small pond from the ground up biodiversity-wise. Start with killifish, mosquitofish, ricefish, etc. then move on to something like Shad, Chubs, or Shiners. Once the population is healthy for the small pond, throw in an oddball or apex predator. Lungfish, Gar, Bichers, a Flathead Catfish, maybe even a Freshwater Puffer!

Sins we have a seasonal creek on the property and they get trapped in the freshwater ponds and eventually the water dries out and die.

    I live in Vegas and have caught rainbows here in June. Main thing they need is cool flow from vegetation and a lot of oxygen. If a pond is 8’ to 15’ deep with high oxygen levels some will survive through summer. If the big bass don’t eat them first. The small pond may be something that might hold Lahotan cutthroats. They are native to Nevada and can tolerate warmer temperatures for longer periods. They also can grow monstrous. They might be something to look into. And they are very aggressive

    I love the idea of putting the biggest Bass into Cedar Falls, but I'd like to suggest more than just 2, for genetic diversity, as well as success rate. If you have 4 or more that are around 4 lbs, you'd be more likely to still have a breeding pair by Spring, with the amount of predators you have around there. And, as a breeder, I can tell you when you plan a good breeding, not all the planets (or luck) align just right all the time. It's always better to have a backup plan. I'd also like to suggest a large fishing net hung above (like a sail) to discourage the birds from going fishing in the little pond. At least until they spawn. Just my 2 cents.

    The trout require oxygen, this is why they like cooler water (colder water holds more oxygen). So Cedar Falls would be a good place for the trout. The waterfall will help keep an elevated oxygen level. Having some trees provide shade would also be a great idea if the trout start dying off.

    Rainbows, depending on the hybrid do better in warm water than most other trout. I’m in Alberta Canada and we have them doing well in some lakes that get pretty warm in the summer. This past summer was one of the consistently hottest ever lakes reached over 80 degrees F and then there was some summer kill, but not 100%. They can get blisters in the heat as well. They DO survive though.

Have you ever thought of taking advantage of the Corvid intelligence and making a camera and feeding setup, specifically for the crows/ravens? With their brains, it may make for some interesting clips.

    There are trout farms in Victoria, Australia that produce coloured rainbow trout. They come in red, blue, yellow and green, and they really look the colour as well. The only downside is they are sterile but look insane. The one fish you have to put in your lake is the Australian Murry Cod, they can grow huge, are recorded to grow to 100 pounds in Flintstones measurements and you won't regret it. And Australian Golden Perch grow huge, fight hard and also look magnificent!

    If you stock some trout in the pond you’d have a good chance for them to breed as they need cool flowing (aerated) water over pebbles which is ideal there. You might have the issue with birds catching them in the shallows though. This also won’t affect the large bass genetics in the pond
