Why are you adding GSH to a mature pond? From what I've read here, this is rarely successful at establishing a base of GSH and will be just an expensive one-time snack for your LMB.
Bocomo,
The thought process on the GSH was to provide the bass with a high quality food source knowing going into it most of them would end up as food this year. The notion of stocking a percentage of brooder size fish has been talked about to hopefully allow for some to pull off a a respectable spawn on all of the added structure we've implemented the last 2 years. Not sure if is feasible or not, but that's the idea at least.
Having been involved in the lake for a few years now, forage other than bluegills seem to be lacking for the bass. Currently estimating stocking 40-50# of GSH and an additional 20# of brooder size GSH for the 2 acre lake.Is there asuggested stocking rate for GSH in an established pond?
