Pond owners who want to improve their fishing should consider fertilizing their pond. However, before fertilizing a pond, the addition of agricultural lime is usually necessary. Winter is the best time to lime your pond. Lime changes the pond's water and soil chemistry allowing the fertilizer to work more effectively. The amount of lime a pond needs can be determined with water or soil tests.
