I tell myself I need to remove the ones 16" and up - but it's difficult to bring myself to that. Maybe I can exercise them to death (given morts with catch and release, a definite possibility).

I would overstock LMB from the beginning - perhaps 50 for your quarter acre. Once they start spawning, you should be in overcrowded bass city.
