I ended up buying the property with the pond next door. As the water cleared I noticed that a lot of sand (mostly from my current property) had washed down in the pond at the corners. The pond is a near perfect square. I believe it created plenty enough areas for BG spawning. I fetilized and got a good bloom a week later. I did not lime however. Will this be necessary even if I get good algae bloom? I stocked 1000 2-3 inch BG and a few CC. Should I wait til next spring to stock LMB and let population explode or do it this May? How many LMB if I'm going for big BG since pond not big enough to grow large bass?
