How big is the pond? Area and depth?
With only 10 Bg in there, you might get some hybrid BG naturally. If you do catch any BG, take them out.
I'd consider feeding in the pond, and if there are kids in the extended family, it would make a pretty good kids fishing pond.
I might adjust the amount of HSB once the size of the pond is known.
It is just a hair under an acre, according to the last Google Earth pic. Max depth is 9' at full pool but not a lot of area at that depth. A fair amount of shallows, as I expanded the pond by going around it with a backhoe even after it initially filled after the initial refurbishment. No plan along with extra machinery sitting around not being used and time on my hands. Not a well thought out master plan.
Like I said, this is my experimental pond. In so many ways.
Had three of the grandkids at 10,9 and 6 ages come up today after school to fish for BG out of our main pond to stock the pond I refurbished for them. BG action still a little slow with the cold water, although it was pretty good for about an hour yesterday.
