George1- I appreciate the reply and the information. I imagine the longer growing season we have doesn't require near as high a stocking rate as the northern lakes will to receive the same forage benefit.

Rainman- Thanks for the info and I will definitely try to find the webpage you referenced. I have been in contact with Overton Fisheries and hope they will be able to come out and do a full survey soon!
