Pond Eco-Management

Services include electrofishing surveys, stock and harvest recommendations, fish habitat improvements, fish stocking, sediment and nutrient mitigation planning, aquatic vegetation identification and management plans, general water quality analyses, restoration guidance, and new pond designs. Owner, Nathan Grider, holds a Master's Degree in Biology with an emphasis in aquatic ecology and has over six years of experience working with aquatic resources throughout the state. It all started with a passion (obsession) with fishing in small private ponds at a young age and developed into a great appreciation and understanding of aquatic ecosystem conservation and management. The pond is an ecosystem you must first understand, and then work with. Mistakes are common and there is plenty of misleading information out there. Our approach uses the latest science and proven fisheries management techniques, coupled with a whole ecosystem perspective, to provide cost-effective management strategies. Our goal is not to sell you products or make unrealistic promises, but simply help you and your family make informed decisions, enjoy your pond, and catch bigger fish! Call and schedule your fish survey or full pond assessment now. We'll help you identify priorities, adjust management, create a fishery to be proud of, and save you time and money!
