NP as it gets larger as in 24"-36" will also eat lots of smaller bass which will be counter productive because smaller bass eat a lot of the smaller GSF thus keeping them few in number. Probably the best thing to be doing now is fishing for the larger GSF with small hooks and live bait and removing every larger GSF. Stocking small bass 4"-6" soon or this fall should thin out the current group of smallest young GSF. Also adding the BG as ewest suggests will eventually balance out the entire fishery. BG will outcompete the GSF if predation pressure of bass is adequate.
