I second the idea of just SMB for the same reasons. They will never bother swimmers and from my experience with this; they will grow to around 9"-10" long. If you have difficulty finding SMB my next option is HSB(hybrid striped bass), third and lesser quality option is LMB. Start with around 40-60 per acre (15-20/0.3 ac) by themselves. They will achieve their natural density per acre after 4-5 yrs. Note the HSB will not reproduce and will need periodic restocking as you notice fewer are present. The HSB will respond well to pellet feeding to entertain the kids.
