catch HSB is about the only goal I have, would like to get them big enough to catch by late Summer/early Fall. Looking to buy the 8-10 inch in the next couple of weeks. Would pellet feed 4-5 times a week but would miss weeks at times. Wouldn't mind some LMB and some BG as well for variety but primarily not looking to fish all that often and when I do will probably just use a stubby steve or some type of pellet bait and try to catch a couple hybrids.

My plan right now is to stock the hybrids in a couple weeks and in the mean time get a better idea of what is in the pond. Possibly stock some adult BG in small numbers as well and/or some shiners as you recomend
