Bill,
Thanks for all the great info. I believe I will look into HSB as my first attempt at geting a large fish. I thank they�re my best choice because I can control their numbers, they take well to pellets, my pond is bowl shaped and 12� deep, and their lure shyness won't matter because they won't be fished a lot. I�ve also read that they control the small bluegills well so there�s a better chance of growing large bluegills
This pond can't be dug any larger then what it is now because it's on the side of a hill in front of my house and its widest point is at the dam which is built on the bottom of a hill and its keyway sets on a layer of shell.
Thanks
