Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations TFS time?

After placing a total of 75 lb of fertilizer in my BOW(!), I finally have a moderate bloom, with viz around 3 feet rather than 5 feet. Also, lots of plants around shoreline, mostly Am Pondweed and chara. CNBG population has exploded, with tons of fish all the way from tiny to biggies.

Here's the question: Should I add 7,000 TFS as recommended last fall? Idea is to help feed 8 to 14 inch LMB, which are mostly underweight. 15 inch plus LMB are heavy, avg RW around 120-130.

Reasons to say yes: TFS would not only feed LMB, but also some HSB growing in the pond. Lots of vegetation now available for TFS to spawn. TFS would make midlake regions productive, too.

Reasons to say no: Now that I've FINALLY got a moderate bloom built up, why add fish which will eliminate it? This could be bad news for all the YOY CNBG, after all. And do I really want a more "balanced" pond between smaller & larger LMB? I'm already aggressively culling smaller, skinnier LMB (188 since 1 Oct 2018), and I'd far rather have heavy big fish than heavy small fish.

I plan to add 100 lb of TP soon, if that makes any difference. Pond is too deep for plants to take over except in shallow upper bays. Forage pond about 1/10 acre just stocked with half a dozen CNBG to begin spawning.

Thoughts?
