Why do you want to add bass? Are you looking for a fish that is easier to catch? As long as there is aeration and enough spawning structure adding a few bass and bluegill wouldn't hurt. Also IMO you shouldn't have to worry about the turtles running out of food.
If you wanted a strong catchable population soon, add 500 "intermediate" or "adult" size BG and 50 bass of "intermediate" size, point being to escape trout predation. If that is too expensive for you add 100 of the biggest BG you can buy and 10 midsize bass but be warned that catchable populations will be years away.
If you are just after a catchable fish and like trout add RBT. If you do so maybe consider a forage species to increase growth such as GSH.
Take this with a large pinch of salt as I am no expert.
