jakeb, did not look over the link, but our preffered method is Oct-March bluegill/redear/fatheads/other forage(?) followed by half load of thredfin shad in May. Followed in June with 2 inch bass. This saves you about $600 vs. stocking later when you have bass established, requiring more shad.. This is about 2,500-3,000 adult size. However probably can get them established with far less numbers. I used to think this is a problem (traditional thinking) but the bluegill do just fine and we get establishement % much higher and saves clients money.
