Just to clarify the lmb I had caught were 3-4yrs ago. They were small and this past sept when I fished saw nothing in the water and no bites. My. Plan is to try observe and fish In early Spring and get a better idea of the pond. If I were to stock 20-30 HSB would that be enough to get them to school and hit the pellets if I established a pretty regular feed schedule or is the pond too big for that thinking? Would I need to stock more than that? Thanks for the advice so far, appreciate it. I think there's a way to donate to the site and that is my plan as well. I consider it a payment to the pond dr. Lol
