We just bought some land in Oklahoma with three ponds on it. The biggest of which is about 4-5 acres. Anyways the owner said that about twenty years ago her Father built it and Oklahoma said that if someone built a pond that is suitable for catfish to breed than they would come out and put 200 catfish in it for you. Well that happened and no one has fished it in over ten years. It always had water in it since it is spring fed. Im going to fish it for the first time tomorrow!
