Who we are

One family farm, every part of pond management under one roof.

We raise our own fish and manage the whole water, so you're not juggling a hatchery, a survey crew, and a vegetation contractor. Davis Fish Farms handles stocking, electrofishing analysis, aeration, liming, fertilization, vegetation control, water testing, and feeders as one coordinated plan.

An overabundance of one species throws a pond out of balance, with costly effects on the whole fishery. Getting the species mix and predator-to-prey ratio right is where decades of hands-on experience pay off.

Our story
What we do

Full-service pond & lake management

Every service below is run by the same team that knows your water. Mix and match, or let us build a single plan.

Fish Stocking

Largemouth bass, bluegill, redear, crappie, catfish, grass carp, trout and more, matched to your goals and stocked in the right ratios.

Electrofishing Surveys

State-of-the-art electroshock sampling identifies species, size, numbers and growth rates so we can correct the balance. Surveys start at $650.

Aeration

Authorized Kasco Marine dealer. Proper aeration keeps your pond oxygenated year-round and the water clean and balanced.

Vegetation Management

Biological, chemical and cultural control for problem weeds and algae, backed by over 50 years of combined aquatic plant experience.

Liming & Fertilization

Liming neutralizes acidity and brings pH to a healthy range. Our 10-52-4 water-soluble fertilizer grows the natural food chain.

Habitat Enhancement

Cover is everything. We build the underwater structure fish need to hunt, hide, rest and reproduce. We also reshape ponds when needed.

Proof in the water

The fish tell the story

Trophy bass, slab bluegill, healthy crappie, pulled from ponds we stock and manage across the Southeast.

From pond owners

Trusted across the Southeast

"After a total population loss, we're enjoying afternoon family fishing trips again. With Davis Fish Farms' help, we're catching 3 lb bass and crazy amounts of bluegill — 16 months after restocking."

Pond restocking

"Stocked at 1.75 inches — and 2½ months later they're 7.5 inches. These guys know how to grow trophy bass."
