Remember my numbers to be removed are a starting point and just my best guess based on not having sampled nor experienced the fishery. Angler catch records will indicate how well the culling is progressing as the pond and fishery ages which is why to keep catch records. Numbers and sizes caught per hours fished plus lure/s used. All these data items provide very important features about the fishery. These data allow for refining the removal numbers to achieve your goals of producing more numbers of larger SMB. It is good to have trustworthy and responsible anglers. I don't see a problem of moving some of the culled SMB to the BG-LMB pond.
