The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) and the Mississippi State Extension Service are hosting a pond management workshop in Smith County. The workshop will be held at Charles Waldrup Ag Center located at 131 Oilfield Road in Raleigh, Mississippi on Tuesday evening, November 14th starting at 6:30 p.m. An hour-long presentation will include topics on pond design, fish stocking, harvest, vegetation control, liming, and fertilization. A question-and-answer period will follow. Those interested in attending the workshop are asked to register by calling the Smith County Extension Office at (601) 782-4454.
“This workshop gives private pond owners and biologists an opportunity to discuss management and options for their ponds” says MDWFP fisheries biologist Buford Lessley. “We talk to people each year that want to manage their ponds effectively, and this is a great way for us to provide information that can help pond owners achieve their goals.”
