BD :

I posted on your other thread as to your other question. On your question of F-1s or northern LMB based on the info I have seen you should try to get some local input as to F-1 results . I think they will do ok with the cold . If it were me I would use half F-1s and half northerns to hedge my bets as to both cold tolerance and growth/catchability. I would get them from a reputable local source with local brood stock. Based on your intended forage base {as per your other post} I would use 6-8 in LMB at the correct time. I am not addressing the HSB question , that is a personal choice based on your goal. Whatever combination of bass you use {HSB or LMB or both } you need to get the right #/lbs. for your pond . It is not good to overstock predator fish if you want to grow them large. ewest
