Sandman,
I agree with Theo.

In my experience with a stunted bass pond, I caught the occassional bass from 5-8 lbs. I'd say I caught one that size for every 40-50 skinny 12" bass, with almost no fish in the 2-3 lb range.

I would sample the population before making a definite conclusion. Catching 3/4 pound fish, the upper range of the size you mentioned in your last post, may not mean you have stunted bass. Do you have any length measurements along with those weights? Do the smaller bass appear skinny or fat?
