I'm kind of shocked that a fish supplier would suggest a plan like that. It doesn't look like he is "just" selling fish, because he is not having you stock anything in enough numbers to feed either the Bass or the Crappie, let alone both...and I would not want to stock a single crapie in a one acre pond...they will overpopulate eventually...even with heavy fishing.


Have you considered lowering the level of the pond considerably and using hydrated lime to kill off the remaining fish? I can virtually assure you that if there were more than HBG there before, there still is....in unknown sizes and numbers. One 2 pund bass may become a 3 pound bass shortly after your restocking.....

Your bass need at least 5 bg for each bass to have barely enough forage....there was no need to add HBG at all as the bg will spawn with the Fx HBG still there...
