Hey, sounds like a fun pond! You are the first person I know of who uses paddlefish in their BOW. How are they doing?

Re larger LMB, you likely need to actively remove undersized fish. I'm doing the same, now have taken out 79 since October. Still have lots to go, though.

I had somewhat larger HSB stocked about six months ago and have caught a few, usually around the dock where a feeder is located. When it goes off, both LMB and HSB come for chow. If you don't have a feeder, I'd recommend one if your budget allows. Texas Hunter has been really good in my experience, you don't have to be there every day. In your neck of the woods you probably would want to wait for the water to warm up enough in April/May for fish to come shallow before feeding.
