Soperton, GA – Once a small family-run operation tucked away in rural Georgia, Edge’s Aquatic Services has now grown into one of the Southeast’s most trusted names in fisheries, pondstocking, and pond and lake management. From humble beginnings, the farm has built a reputation for integrity, expertise, and results—serving pond and lake owners across Georgia and into neighboring states with professional fish stocking, water management, and habitat improvement services. Edge’s Aquatic Services Expands its reach to meet the needs of an ever-growing clientele.
“Our goal has always been to give pond and lake owners the right tools to build and maintain healthy, thriving lakes and ponds,” said owners Keith & Kim Edge. “We’ve expanded over the years, but our mission remains the same: to combine hard work and honest service with real results in the field. We’re focused on quality, not quantity.”
As our services expand, we remain committed to sustainable practices that ensure the health and vitality of aquatic ecosystems.
Expanding From Local Roots to Regional Reach
Founded in Soperton, GA, Edge’s Aquatic Services began with a handful of ponds, a family farm, and a simple vision: provide reliable stocking and management solutions for private pond and lake owners who wanted better results from their water. Today, the farm serves clients across the entire state of Georgia and beyond, with growing demand in surrounding southeastern states (fish stocking services in North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee, Louisiana, Virginia, and Florida).
A major step forward came with finding a new distribution farm, Blessed Bayou in Cove, TX. This location now helps disperse Edge’s popular F1 Oxbow Bass across Texas, the broader Southern U.S., and some midwestern states like Oklahoma and Arkansas.
“This partnership with Blessed Bayou allows us to better serve pond and lake owners outside of Georgia that are seeking our Oxbow Bass,” Edge explained. “It extends our reach, ensures healthier, stronger fish deliveries, and helps us support more clients across the region.”
The Rise of the Oxbow Bass
This expansion has been fueled in part by the popularity of the F1 Oxbow Bass—a first-generation hybrid bred from Florida-strain and northern largemouth bass. Known for its rapid growth, resilience, and aggressive strikes, the Oxbow Bass has become a premier choice for private lake and pond owners in Georgia and now Texas. Inspired by the oxbow lake systems of South Georgia, where the world-record largemouth bass was caught in 1932, this hybrid represents a balance of strength, adaptability, and sportfishing potential.
“Our Oxbow Bass program has been a game-changer,” said Edge. “They grow quickly, put up a fight for anglers, and adapt well to different pond environments. That combination makes them one of the most sought-after stocking options in the Southeast.”
A Full Range of Fisheries and Pond Management Services
While bass stocking may grab headlines, Edge’s Aquatic Services offers a comprehensive set of solutions to help pond and lake owners achieve their goals—whether they’re managing a family farm pond, a private hunting lodge, or a multi-acre lake.
Available fish species include:
● Sterile Grass Carp – Natural vegetation control for ponds and lakes
● Bluegill & Shellcracker – Essential forage and sportfish
● Golden Shiners – Key forage species to boost bass growth
● Catfish – Popular for recreational fishing and pond balance
● Crappie – A Southeast favorite for sport and table fare
● Oxbow F1 Largemouth Bass – Including the Oxbow F1 for premier pond stocking
Beyond stocking, Edge’s Aquatic Services provides:
● Electrofishing surveys to evaluate fish populations and lake health
● Vegetation control for invasive aquatic plants
● Pond and lake fountains to improve water quality and aesthetics
● Liming and phosphorus mitigation to balance pond chemistry
● Free phone consultations to guide pond and lake owners toward the best management strategies
Science, Stewardship, and Service
At its core, Edge’s Aquatic Services believes that healthy fisheries are built on more than just stocking fish—they require long-term planning, balanced ecosystems, and a commitment to stewardship. That philosophy has made the farm a reliable partner for ranchers, farmers, and recreational pond and lake owners alike.
Just as food plots sustain deer herds on land, water quality and forage bases sustain bass populations in ponds. Edge’s team helps pond and lake owners analyze these needs, create custom stocking plans, and apply science-based solutions to ensure lasting success.
“Our work goes beyond fish deliveries,” explained Edge. “It’s about helping families, hunters, and pond and lake owners create water systems that thrive year after year. Whether someone wants trophy bass fishing or simply a clean pond for recreation, we provide the knowledge and tools to make it happen.”
Expanding Across the Southeast
With more pond and lake owners investing in pond and lake management, Edge’s Aquatic Services has seen steady growth across the Southeast. The addition of Blessed Bayou as a distribution farm ensures clients in Texas and nearby states can access the same level of service and superior fish quality that Georgia pond and lake owners have trusted for years.
The farm expansion reflects a broader trend: private pond and lake owners increasingly view fisheries management as a vital investment in their property. Healthy ponds not only provide recreation but also boost land value and create ecological balance.
Looking Ahead
As Edge’s Aquatic Services continues to expand, the farm remains committed to its roots: honesty, hard work, and a deep respect for the natural resources of the Southeast.
“We may have grown beyond a single farm in Georgia, but we haven’t changed who we are,” said Edge. “We still treat every pond like it’s our own, and every client like a neighbor.”
