tadpoles are about 98 % water so they are not much help as far as additional forage goes. they will be all but gone as soon as bass get large enough. In the past two days I have seen bluegill moving up onto beds, so I doubt your 30 BG have had an opportunity to spawn this year. i would not worry if catfish are not eating yet. I see that often. try feeding at dawn or dusk sometimes that helps, quit banging on the metal drum until you get your fish to feed. you are probably just scaring the *!*# out of them.

I think the hybrid BG is more hype than anything. I just shocked a pond yesterday and caught 20 BG and shellcracker in the 12 inch range. all of these fish were much larger than any hybrid BG I have personally seen. I agree with Bill, 200 more 3-6 bluegill wont hurt your pond at all.
