Thank you, Bill.
So I have this straight a HSB (hybrid striped bass) is the same as a wiper (Morone saxatilis x M. chrysops), correct?
At this point in time I'm looking to stock a pond with FHM as forage. The most prolific species will be the YEP. I'm also considering supplementing these fish with BLB as both a forage for YEP and potential sport fish. The apex predator would then be HSB.
The size of the pond is 3-4 acres, so what percentage of the YEP should I be stocking the pond with HSB if the outcome is to produce 8-10 in YEP?
