Norm,
I find your "ranking" interesting and it does agree with my experience. Also, it seems to support moving more toward HSB vs LMB, if one wants to catch fish (besides bluegill), including large fish on a regular basis.
I'm going in that direction in my largest pond, i.e HSB on a put and take basis. Stocking a few each fall and again in the spring. I personnally enjoy catching fish on the fly rod with my grandchildren...thats much more fun to me than observing LMB.
