Building a Perfect Trout Pond with Wildlife Enhancement
We build a private pond on a Montana ranch to stock trout, and irrigate food plots for wildlife enhancement. And....Find a Dinosaur during the construction!
We find the perfect location to build a trout pond on a ranch in Montana. Fed by springs and only a few hundred yards from one of Montana's most productive spring creeks, we look to capitalize on this location by creating a one acre, 15 feet deep pond with a perfect food chain. Ponds are basically sterile after construction. There isn't a food chain established. Using a few plants, freshwater shrimp,
insects and bacteria from the Blue Ribbon trout stream close by, we inoculated the new pond with this highly productive food chain to grow big healthy rainbow trout.
In addition, we apply for a permit to allow us to irrigate food plots around the pond to enhance the diet for the many species of animals and birds in the area. Shore birds and waterfowl were attracted and nested. Many small animal species like mink, muskrats, foxes, and herons are now using this pond to find food and water. Large animals like deer, bears and moose were attracted to this enhanced area.
During the construction of the pond, a dinosaur was found! You get to take a look at the first bone that was found, a vertebrae from the tail of a Jurassic dinosaur.
Future videos will show the stocking of trout and catching them to see how big they grow. Videos of the discovery and excavation of the dinosaur are coming, so subscribe to the Wildlife Channel to be notified when these videos are uploaded and follow along on these exciting stories.
