You do not want southern strain bass (Fla bass) where you live. They will not have good survival in your winters. Stick with northern strain bass and if they get plenty of food AND the correct size of food as they grow larger they will easily grow to 6 to 8 lbs. However this may be problematic in your size of pond.
