Minnows will not be any good for growing 2lb-6lb bass. as bass grow bigger than 14" they need larger and larger food to eat and keep growing efficiently. Work to get them eating Aquamax bass pellets. Each pellet is supposed to have the nutrition of a 5"-6" trout. Your best plan is to have a small forage pond where you grow shiners and crayfish and BG if the bass are keeping the proper sizes of BG numbers lower density. Trim the tails or a fin of feeder BG before tossing them into the bass pond.
