These fish will not feed on a commercial feed, but with a good supply of Fathead Minnows and Hybrid Bluegill they will grow at a rate of 1/4 to 1/2 pound per growing season.
There are two types of crappie that are most common, the Black Crappie and the White Crappie. The Whites are much more prolific than the Black. White Crappie in most cases, take over smaller ponds and lakes. White Crappie should never be stocked in impoundments less than 100 acres. Black Crappie can be stocked in ponds as small as 1 acre without any concern of overpopulation. Since they don't propagate to the extent that the White Crappie do, you will find the average Black Crappie will grow faster and get larger than the average White Crappie.
The Black Crappie is a fish that offers an excellent sporting quality, and are even more enjoyable on the table than they are in the pond. A large Black Crappie is by far the most attractive sport fish you can have in your pond. When properly managed, this fish will add color to your pond or lake not found in most waters.
Coppernose Bluegill are ideal for ponds where forage is a concern because they are usually 80% female. Coppernose Bluegill are aggressive but remain a low impact fish since their mouths are small. Coppernose Bluegill are available on our route trucks or for special delivery. Special Delivery available for orders over $1000 Minimum Order: 25

Turtles are a major problem in any pond or lake. Besides being a nuisance to fisherman, they can forage on your fish and may destroy spawning areas, disrupting the natural balance of your lake. For this reason, Dunn's "Sure Ketch" Turtle Trap has become one of the more popular items in our product line.
This trap is constructed of an aluminum angle main frame and is held afloat with a high density Styrofoam on all four sides. There are two aluminum flippers with grooves that come out of the water and go over the top of the trap on both sides. These flippers are attached to stainless hinges. When the turtles crawl up on the flippers to sun themselves, the flippers will dump them into the trap. The flippers are weighted to automatically reset themselves.
Put the "Sure Ketch" Turtle Trap to work for you and watch as your pond becomes a more enjoyable, productive environment. Check out the Assembly Video Below!
In Production Since 1982!
Fertilizer is used to establish a plankton bloom in your water. Plankton is the first step in the food chain in any pond or lake. All new reproduction will feed on plankton until they are able to forage on other fish. The availability of plankton in your water will increase the growth rate of your new reproduction, in turn increasing their survival rates.
Our "Trophy Grower" Liquid Pond Fertilizer is simple to apply, and in most ponds and lakes plankton can be established in only two or three applications. Make Dunn's Trophy Grower Pond Fertilizer a part of your management program today and see your pond become a more productive, healthy environment.

When it comes to vegetation control in your pond, grass carp are a cost effective, efficient solution to many types of problem vegetations. To achieve desired results these fish should be stocked at a rate of 10 per acre of vegetation, or increase this rate by 50% in spring fed or otherwise clear water impoundments where sun rays penetrate much deeper than normal. These fish are available on our route trucks or for special delivery.
The Grass Carp will not reproduce, or harm the reproduction of other fish in the pond. They eat 3 times their body weight in moss and vegetation per day. The vegetation is sucked through the mouth to the "teeth" in the throat, this way the pond is not muddied by pulling the moss out by the roots. The rooted vegetation will continue to grow back while the Grass Carp keep it maintained. Their average growth rate is 2-5 pounds per season. These fish will need to be re-stocked every 5 to 7 years on the average. Special Delivery available for orders over $1000 Min.

This fish is the number one stocked sport fish today. The Hybrid Bluegill is crossed between a male bluegill and female green sunfish. This particular cross produces a fish with the large mouth of the sunfish and the aggressiveness of the bluegill, which enables the fish to grow faster and larger than common bream. It will feed on a commercial feed with annual growth rates of up to 1/2 to 3/4 pound per season. With a good management program in place these fish can reach weights of 2 to 2 1/2 pounds and exceptional fish will reach the weight of 3 pounds or greater! Fish are available on our route trucks or for special delivery.Special Delivery available for orders over $1000 Minimum Order: 25
