Jimmy, CJ is right in that you don't want to stock CNBG fingerlings in a pond that you're adding adult bass to. But if I understand correctly, there aren't any fish in that pond yet? What I meant by adult bass was bass that have survived from stocking to become adult; but you don't have to start with adult fish if there are none in the pond now. If there are already fish in the pond, you would need to stock larger CNBG and larger LMB to keep them from getting eaten.
250 bluegill is too many for a 1/3 acre pond if you want big bluegill. That's a good number if big bass are the priority, but I wouldn't stock more than half that many if trophy 'gills are the goal. And if you stock larger CNBG rather than fingerlings, you should stock even fewer, no more than 75. It's all about food supply. Many pond managers who are after trophy 'gills go so far these days as to stock nothing but male bluegill - and in very low numbers - for the reason that they'll never overpopulate and will always have all they want to eat. I'm about to start such a pond myself. The catch to that of course is you have to have bluegill large enough to positively sex, which is at least 6" and more likely 7".
But you don't have to go with an all-male pond. 1/3 acre is plenty big enough to manage very successfully for huge bluegill - I've done it. Keeping several bass in there at all times is the key. And if you start out with the proper numbers stocking-wise, you'll be far ahead of the game, and it will take half the time and one-tenth the frustration to get your 'gills big.
If the smaller pond has no fish yet, I would recommend 125 CNBG fingerlings and 100 LMB fingerlings, with the assumption that not all the fingerlings of either species will survive to adulthood. If every one of the bass were somehow improbably to survive, you would need to thin them some, but that's pretty simple: just put them in the bigger pond, which needs them badly anyway. If the smaller pond already has fish, I would stock 60 4-5" CNBG and 50 6-8" LMB. If you're not already fertilizing the pond, start a fertilization program right away and get that plankton bloom going, as that just by itself will quadruple the growth rate of your bluegill, and the overall carrying capacity of the pond. Install an automatic feeder and set it to feed twice a day, or even three times a day once the fish take to eating the food, which should be almost immediately with hatchery-raised CNBG. And post pictures to let us see your progress!
