I am not an expert on stocking strategies but had a similar issue this year. GSF already in the lake that I stocked with BG as grow out pond. I have found the BG have reduced the number of small or YOY GSF. I also have found a clover leaf trap is really good at removing the GSF. I get about 15-25 each time. It might not be enough but it makes me feel better!

Beautiful place you have. Good luck
