About how many fish total (bass, crappie, catfish,etc.) are in a pond that is about half the size of a foorball field in length and width. I mean just a guess. The pond is about 50 years old. The shore line around it is about 6ft deep and the center is about 15ft deep. I just wonder how many fish are swimming around under the boat while I'm in there. Is there a general rule for lakes too, like 20 fish for every 20 foot square, etc. I am not asking for an exact number and tried to give as much details about the lake as I can. Just curious, thanks!

Figure 1 bass per every 20 square feet. ?

Cool. That sounds good. It makes sense too. Granted they move around a lot but the fish finder shows movement too. Thanks man!
