George the big lake in my understanding has a mix of LMB genetics including some very good ones . Brian wants to keep improving the genetic mix in the big lake. What we talked about was getting a few adult CB LMB from Todd and putting them in GT III and watch them spawn , grow them out and hand select the best to go in the big lake. That is an option to stocking small CB yoy with the risk of heavy predation or stress related loss and unknown survival #s for planning. Plus you have the benefit of your own judgment and gain experience. Fairly simple plan and is the same concept as the one used on his /your CNBG and consistent with what you have posted. It is just an extension of what he is currently doing.
