BillD - IMO I would not stock white river crayfish until you have tried to use the northern crayfish aka virile or Orconectes virilis. Northern crayfish has an intermediate sized adult between the papershell and white river crayfishes. Putting in too large of a full sized crayfish such as the white river or red swamp could result in crayfish management problems since your larger bass will be 14"-15". I suggest you proceed cautiously and conservatively.
