Family-Owned Excellence Since 1991
Slade’s Fish Hatchery was established in Lumberton, Mississippi, and has remained a trusted source of pond stocking services for over three decades. Being family-owned and operated, our business is rooted in values of hard work, integrity, and personal care for each of our customers.
From the start, our mission has been to raise and distribute healthy fish that thrive once introduced into private ponds. By controlling every aspect of breeding, nutrition, and environment, we ensure consistent quality across every species we provide. Over the years, this dedication has earned us a reputation for reliability throughout Mississippi and Louisiana.
Our customers know that they are not only receiving quality fish but also the personal attention of a team that genuinely cares about the long-term success of their pond. Every consultation, every stocking, and every service is done with the same attention to detail that has been the foundation of our business since 1991.
The Importance of Proper Pond Stocking
Successful pond stocking goes far beyond simply placing fish in water. The right balance of species, numbers, and timing determines whether a pond flourishes or struggles. At Slade’s Fish Hatchery, we guide pond owners in Mississippi and Louisiana through every step of the process to ensure lasting success.
Catfish stocking is one of the most popular services we provide, offering customers a reliable and enjoyable fish that is hardy and easy to manage. Bass stocking is equally important for those who want a well-balanced ecosystem with both predator and prey species. Tilapia stocking has grown in popularity as a natural way to manage algae and improve overall water health. Grass carp stocking is another effective solution for controlling aquatic vegetation, preventing weeds from taking over.
For those who value the aesthetic beauty of their pond, koi and goldfish stocking provide vibrant color and movement. These ornamental fish add a unique character to ponds, making them perfect for decorative or recreational spaces. With our expertise, pond owners can select the right combination of species that align with their goals, whether that is fishing, aesthetics, or ecological balance.
Pond Management Services Tailored to Your Needs
Beyond pond stocking, we offer pond management services designed to keep your water healthy and productive. Our pond maintenance consultation provides tailored advice and solutions for issues like water quality, algae growth, vegetation control, and overall fish health.
Every pond is different, and we believe in creating personalized management strategies rather than one-size-fits-all recommendations. Whether you are a first-time pond owner in Mississippi or a seasoned pond manager in Louisiana, our team is here to help you address challenges and maximize the potential of your pond.
By combining quality fish with sound management practices, we give our customers the tools they need to create thriving ecosystems. Our consultation services ensure that you are not only stocking fish but also building a sustainable environment where those fish can thrive.
