I think your fish are big enough to control most of the bullheads. Probably have some bullheads that get chunky and make it into the 1-3 LB range. That's my experience in LMB/CC ponds in Oklahoma.

Hopefully so. I'll monitor them with the traps. Thank you for the positive feedback.

Would it be a bad idea to add 75 or so LMB YOY next spring just to help eat BH fry??

Do you already have LMB? it looks like you do in the signature but may the ? means those after the dots are unknown? If you have LMB already, I would say don't add small fingerlings. If it is unknown then I would say catch some LMB dinks in the 6" to 8" range from a consenting neighbor's BOW and stock them. What are you goals with respect to this BOW?

Some LMB washed in with the BH, GSF and GSH. Just do not know how many. I suspect more will wash in during the next flood. Hopefully lots of rain comes soon! We need it bad.
