GILLESPIE COUNTY SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT #220

Gillespie County, Texas

Annual Fish Sales.  Each year we hold a fish sale so area landowners can restock their ponds and tanks.  The fish are raised at the Arms Fish Farm in Dublin, TX.  With all the rain during 2007, we had several fish sales.  We held 2 small sales in 2008. 

Our Spring 2009 Fish Sale is tentatively set for May 22 at the Gillespie County Fairgrounds pavilion.  You’d need to order and pay for your fish at the SWCD office before the delivery date.  You’re welcome to call 830-997-3349 ext. 3 for more info and pricing.

Grass Carp can help control some kinds of pond vegetation.  They like to eat bushy pondweed, hydrilla, and American pondweed.  Texas Parks and Wildlife’s website has a page about Triploid grass carp, available as a pdf file.  Their website can help you find out if Grass Carp can help your pond.  Though grass carp cannot reproduce, you need a permit from Parks and Wildlife before you can buy them.  Click the link above and use their web page to download the permit application.  Allow 4 to 5 weeks for the permit process.
