If you keep numerous LMB of various sizes in the pond they should keep the bullheads from overpopulating and the ones you catch should be eating sizes. Bullheads 10"-12" are as good eating as CC in my opinion. Bullheads will learn to eat fish pellets so they should grow rapidly in 3-4 yrs for nice sized fish to harvest. I grew bullheads in a cage from 3.5"-5" to 10"-10.5" long in 2 years.
