Here's the other set. It's almost a mirror imige of the first set posted and its also tied into the garden soaker hose system.
lol. that's what a lot of people say... I just tell them to wait until I put the big pond in the back 40!Originally Posted by Evolver
I put up a couple pics in another thread... when I find it again, I'll link it. Unless someone can beat me to it!
I put rainbow trout fry in there this year (200) and managed to grow them to 8-12 inches. Then I had a circulation issue, and lost them... about 1/2 for bear bait, and 1/2 to the freezer. they tasted excellent!!
You can also go with a larger connecting hose at the bottom, say a 2" pcv, with a single spigot in between. A buddy has just the garden hose system setup like I first mentioned, and it works well enough for him. Although you obviously know your specific situation better.
nice set up!
Rainbows are the best tasting trout IMHO especially if you can run into some pink meat natives. That's too bad that you lost them but it doesn't take too long for them to be good pan friers again. I saw your place and all I can say is WOW!!!
Thanks for the comment.
