To maintain proper balance within pond and lake ecosystems, evaluation and assessment of fish populations can be of significant value. The Virginia Lake Management team of professionals has the educational background and maintains the qualifications and accreditations necessary to assist you in making key decisions on fisheries management.

A Fisheries Biologist can help to optimize your pond’s fish population by using an electro-shocking research vessel to harmlessly collect fish and gather information on population dynamics, growth rates and fish health. During this process undesired fish can be removed.		Whether you stock your lake with fish to improve water quality or for sport fishing, our Fisheries Biologist can help to determine the size, number and species needed.
Using automated fish feeders can bring balance to your fishery by improving growth rates, reproductive rates and survival rates. Supplemental feeding can double the biomass of fish your pond can support while providing you a front row seat to managing your fishery.		Good fishing ponds need a management plan that incorporates periodic population assessments, supplemental feeding, fish stocking, habitat management, creel limits and water quality monitoring while incorporating innovative management techniques.
