We have a 7 acre pond with BG, LMB, and some BCP. The BG are nice size and exceed standard weight by ~25%. LMB are also healthy weights for length. BCP are skinny and less numerous (I caught one ~10" BCP but around 50 BG fishing last evening). We have been holding off on LMB harvest to hopefully run bass heavy and increase BG weight / growth rate. We have not been feeding at all, and no aeration.

Is there anything we should / can do to give the BCP a better diet? Any way to establish minnows in a bass heavy pond? We really have no compass on management at this point other than running a bit bass heavy. Thanks for your thoughts.
