I was referring to the potential of buying a few nice 3+ pound bass once we see some decent growth attained by the initial stocking. Once again, the answer is probably patience.
Check this link out for growth rates. Of course we do not live in the south and can't have these type of bass, but it is a recent post that I recalled seeing. A big factor to growth rates is having the proper forage for them to eat, and enough of it.
