Welcome to the PB forum � you will find many helpful and friendly pondmeisters on this site- some professional � some amateurs � with much experience and knowledge.
Being in the amateur class with small ponds, I can�t advise management of a 15-acre lake. It sounds from you post that you have done your homework and/or sought professional help.
The only suggestion that I would make is to investigate some of the new ideas and concepts that have come from board members on developing a diversified fishery.
I personally, as well as others, have had experience and success with hybrid stripers, in addition to the traditional LMB, CC, BG combination.
Feel free to ask questions, and also you will find the archives a very valuable resource.
