Pinetar, TFS MIGHT survive a few years, or die the first winter. I doubt 100 pounds of fully gravid TFS would produce even 400# of forage in a year, and be mostly feeding unwanted smaller LMB until, and unless TFS establish well.
Howdy from a bit north of you.
I would tend to agree with Rex on this one, having tried to establish TFS three separate times in two 3acre ponds, without much luck. TFS have a tough time getting established and thriving in an LMB intensive environment; might have some luck with them in a new pond, but they're such a preferred food item that they go fast unless they have
I guess two variables that might figure into the equation would be the configuration of your pond, and goals for fishing. A fairly round pond with deep edges, lots of open water would favor the establishment of TFS, especially if very fertile, and if your goal in fishing was to catch a whole lot of bass each year in the 10-14" range, you might do well with TFS.
