I fear PS and GSF will not spawn frequently enough to develop a forage base to support your predators. I totally understand your concern regarding BG in a Northern fishery but just something to keep in mind. You could consider supplementally stocking a different forage species like GSH or some other minnow species to help take the pressure off your PS and GSF. In the end if your predators have super low WR you can always stock BG and their presence will be known in a short while.

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. ~ Henry David Thoreau
