Welcome to the fourm . As noted in the posts above you will find lots of info, ideas and help on this site . I don't know what resource material you have but you may want to consider 2 books by Pondboss editor Bob Lusk on managing ponds and trophy bass they are on the web site. Also the Texas Coop. Ext. Service has an on line pond management publication which is helpful.

You can reach the goals in your post with some effort. Many on this fourm have done the same and can help.

Great advice in the above posts .The key is understanding the basic factors to pond mgt. and using them to get to your goal. I agree your next step is to be sure what is in your pond. Good luck . ewest
