Nebraska Pond Guide

The Nebraska Pond Guide series was developed to provide an overview of information that owners can use to manage existing ponds or construct new ones. Information includes segments on pond construction, habitat modifications, stocking, management, potential maintenance problems, and other pond animals. By knowing what conditions can lead to problems, pond owners can correct or even prevent them. Consolidated information on these same topics is presented in the Nebraska Pond Management Handbook.

Please note: Effective January 1, 2009, a Private Waterbody Management Authorization (PWMA) is required before harvesting/removing bass less than 15 inches long.
