The construction of my pond starts today and when finished it will be 3/4 to 1 acre in size. Im trying to decide on type of LMB to stock. Im in souther Louisiana and I would like the size of Florida bass, we have them in our lake at the deer camp. I also like the tenacity of a regular LMB. We dont catch many FLMBs at the camp unless we put a bream on a hook under a cork, we catch whoppers that way. Casting doesnt produce that well. I dont think a pond the size of minew will produce giant FLMB so Im kinda leaning toward F1 or regular LMB. Possibly F1 and a few Pure FLoridas. I would like to be able to go out and cast for an hour and catch a few rather than only catch 1 or 2 a week. Is there a problem with putting a mixture fo strains of bass in my pond. In a pond the size of mine can I expect F1 to approach 10lbs because 7-10 lbs would be amazing. We are catching 8lb fish at our camp but they are pure florida bass in a 4 acre lake.
Give me some bass stocking options. Im also going to put HBG and CC and FHM
