Stocking a newly filled 5 acre pond and want some feedback. My goal is pure trophy bass fishing and I stocked in late May 2007 20 lbs. of Fatheads, 600 3-4" Coppernose BG, 200 Redear BG. The pond was since completely filled with recent heavy Oklahoma rains.
I am planning on coming back in September of 2007 and adding more FH and Bluegill to an average of BG 750 per acre.
I want the forage base strong when I stock the bass. Thinking of waiting to stock bass until September of 2008 to give it a full year to cook the forage base. Too Long? Benefit not worth it? I am thinking of 750 6-8" bass which is 150 per acre? Would I be better off to go with 500?

Please share your thoughts.........
