I think this was discussed a year or so ago but I could not find what I was looking for so I thought I would ask. I am considering adding some Rainbows to the pond this coming fall, most likely be in late Nov or earlier if the water temps allow. I am looking for wait gain and growth of the lmb in the pond by feeding them some rainbows. I would be looking for 5" because most of the lmb are in the 15 to 18" range. And I was also looking at the growth of the rainbows when feed by the TH feeders. If added @ 5" and feed daily, what size might they be in late Feb.(90 days) if some survived till then? And if I have say 30 lmb per acre, how many rainbows would you add to this 3.25 acre pond? And I am thinking $1.00 per rainbow plus transportation but have not priced them, is that in the ballpark u think?

I will also be adding some small Tp this fall for additional forage for the lmb and am looking for the lmb to fill up on them as the water cools which makes them easier to catch and eat.
