FWIW I agree with all the other guys. I would drastically reduce your LMB numbers. I would remove any LMB one size class smaller than your largest class if a trophy LMB pond is the goal. Also, I would do what is necessary to help the BG population get back to multiple size classes and numbers. With respect to Tilapia, I would keep in mind they need a good food source if they are to thrive. Do you have a lot of FA or plan on feeding pellets? I understand they also die every year if the water temp goes too low. That can make them a recurring expense every year if cost is a concern. One of the other guys can probably approximate what it would cost yearly to stock a 22 acre lake with Tilapia.

Good Luck!
