Hey Jim, Welcome to the PBF.
If you look in the Corrective Stocking section here you will find some good stuff to get you going.
Your goal seems to be large BG. So your on your way. In a 1/4 acre pond one thing you have to be careful of is over stocking. I am no expert but if your wanting big BG you may want to consider a feeding program as well. I would be careful how many LMB you put in a pond that size. I am gonna say no more than 12 pounds of predator fish in that size pond.
First though do you have any bait fish in the pond? I would stock your bait fish and your BG first put your LMB in maybe in the fall once your other fish have gotten a good foothold. Someone else will chime in here I am sure and give you a little better advise than me. Good Luck and keep us posted.
