Have you tried keystone hatchery? They are just South of the Wi. border.

All you need is LMB that are big enough to avoid predation from your other LMB in the pond. Say, 1/3 the length or slightly longer than the larger LMB in your pond now. You could stock smaller ones, but some will get eaten by the LMB in the pond now. 50 per acre would be a good starting point, depending on how many LMB per acre you think you have in there now.


I tired them last year - but they get them from a guy that sells his Bass to a different market and he didn't have any left from what I was told.

What about the BC in the pond. Won't BC eat 3-4inch bass?
