I know of a PB member who has a trophy BG fishery, they stocked TP one summer and it had different results. The TP forced out the BG at the feeders which slowed growth of the BG in the mid range. After the TP died that winter and were not restocked he estimated it would take another 1.5-2 years to get the trophy BG fishery back right.
I can see though if your wanting to grow big bass and have stock TP the larger BG would feed on tilapia fry, it could be a win win. Managing for a trophy BG fishery perhaps may be a different story.
