GPR, have I already spoke with you? Or another guy who emailed with similiar situation. The stocking you mentioend is traditional and works just fine for ok, "bream" fishing, ok catfish and ok bass. If you want more catfish and will eat more catfish then you can stock more catfish. You just want to limit the amount of catfish over 2-3 lbs. So stock 100/acre if you want several good fish frys.
Your part of the state is typical unfertilie soil, so what BC said does not apply. ( sorry Bruce I wish we could get blooms just from excess waste)However what he said does apply on waht is rention time how long does water stay in the pond? If you have too much flow fertilization is out the door and feeding is much more important. It is much easier btw than with old style granular so you might consider since you did a good job on lime addition. If not then what Ewest describes is true and very limited on predator growth. Also 6 attrators is not enough habitat if that is all you put in, need more diversity, etc.
You might consider if you do a supplemental feeding program stocking hybrid striped bass in addition to largemouth. Also if you want to maximize fishing sucess immediately double to 800 bluegill and 200 redear/AC. Also add 2,000 fathead minnows/ac, again depends on goals.
Believe it or not you can stock trout in the winter for fun, in fact guys on taking some down your way right now. I suggest once the pond is 1/2-3/4 full sometime prior to spring just stocking smaller bluegill, you can if impatience supplement with larger (4-5")and reduce numbers by 2-1 vs. smaller (1-2"). Lots of good advice here, feel free to email with questions or to order fish , fish habitats or feeder. Good luck!
