A few quandaries:

-Will goldfish survive in a pond over the winter?Not really. They are not as good at wintering as koi and most people bring them inside to avoid them freeing.
-Are there any freshwater eel types that can survive in a pond in NC?I've never heard of someone keeping eels in a backyard pond before. They are predatory and would most likely eat your other fish.
-How many is too many catfish?Depends. How large is the space. Also, they are tropical so an outside pond would not be the best habitat for them
