I was leaning towards using only HSB in my 3/4 acre pond to control CNBG and the consensus was that nobody was sure if that would be enough predation. It was a recent post in types of fish to choose titled is one predator species enough. I would copy the link but I would probably screw it up!!! Lots of good info that may help you. I went with a mix of both... Time will tell how good of a decision that was David I'll take a look. My pond is going to be almost completely featureless so it seems with the correct predator stocking I could ensure almost zero recruitment of CNBG. I've seen some concern about using the LMB/HSB solution to population control in small ponds. I'm not exactly sure why the smaller pond gives reason for pause unless you run the risk of starving the bass. I'm not going to worry about it too much. Its all a fun experiment and I can invest in a sein if things get rough!
