Don’t wait a year. I have seen situations where the bluegill get too big and then eat the fingerling bass and you have to stock with adults.

We recommend stocking with forage (bluegill and fathead minnows) in fall/early spring. Then follow up with bass in June. We have GREAT results stocking like this.

As far as catfish, yes they can co-exist. But I would wait and let everything else get going good and then add adult catfish. Well honestly, I wouldn’t add catfish cause I got nothing for them. They are personal preference though
