Tot, do you not want to stock largemouth bass? This is the ideal predator for bluegill. even just putting 50 of them in your pond would do alot for controlling the smaller bream.

If you dont want bass then I would start keeping some of those hand sized bream to put in the frying pan wink

Good luck, I'm sure someone else will have input as well
