Hello everyone I was directed to this cite by several other people I had talked to about a new project. My wife and I live on some land in north central Minnesota. This march we will be breaking ground(hopefully, weather permiting) on our new natural swimming pool. It is sealed concrete construction and will feature a deep swimming area 25'W by 40'L by 10'deep, around the perimeter of the deep area will be a shallow zone 5'W by 30in deep and sloping out of the water. At the end of the swimming area is a "beach area" 30' by 35' by 30in deep. To the right of the deep area is the filtration area, a circle 25' across and 24-30in deep. A 10,000gph pump moves water from the filtration area to a "stream" 5'W by 30in deep, by 15'long. It is roughly 147,000 gallons and is airated in the deep area.
I have talked to the hatcheries guys already and have settled for placing in several golden rainbow trout(not to be mistaken for the endangered golden trout) and maybe some brookies.
My question here is, Does anyone know of any other "cool" species that can survive a Mn winter?
