Guys lets not change this into a feeding vs. non-feeding discussion. Feeding is a very complex question that we can start a new thread on. I will add that feeding (whether natural , pellets or both) does not necessarily mean bigger fish as it can just as easily mean more small fish to balance. Instead lets answer david u 's questions as he said no feeding for now.

david u the problem with stocking as you stated is the predators will either (1 eat up your forage base stocker fish (if you stock small forage and bigger predators) or (2 starve to death if you stock big forage they can't eat. There are examples (locations) where you can stock all at the same time 2 inch forage and predators if the forage #s are high and the predator #s low.

Five acres is big enough for TShad along with the BG , RES ,ect if you have fertile water. I am not sure of the dynamics of stocking GShiners and TShad at the same time along with BG and the rest. If I was going that route I would want the TShad to spawn before the first stocked GShiners could eat them or their just spawned yoy. My guess is I would wait until fall to stock the predators (2-4 inch) and adult GShiners after having stocked the TShad and small BG/RES/FH now. If you wanted you could try GShiner fry now with the plan above.
