Since you have the LMbass ordered from Overton use them. They will grow exceptionally well in your forage rich pond. At some point in the future (5-8yrs) I see no problem of your adding some "regular" 8"-10" LMB and this will dilute the genetic stock of the F1 population and maybe help the overall bass population in your pond. Others with some experience with diluted F1 genetics bass could provide some beneficial advice at this point.

Please come back at least once a year to this thread topic and advise us about the growth rate of your LMbass and about the numbers and sizes of your of GSF, hybrid bgill and how the CNBG are developing. I am very interested in the progress of the fishery of your pond.
