If you like the idea of growing some real big BG and shellcrackers, I would go down that route... I agree with HoneyHole that a pond in the 1.5 acre size is more suited to growing nice sunfish than big bass. I personally think a pond with large sunfish and piles of stunted bass make the best kids fishing holes. There will still be the occasional 2-3 pound bass to keep it interesting... If you're willing to utilize a feeder and feed your BG a quality feed like Aquamax, you have a great possibility of growing some real nice fish. With you being in GA, you can certainly stock the coppernose variety of BG upping your odds of growing some monsters. I also think adding a few bonus HSB to this pond, particularly if you are feeding wouldn't take away from your ability to grow trophy sized sunfish. The lack of spawning areas for your sunfish and stocking more LMB than typical along with a feeding program will be a good recipe for success!
