If you are having a hard time catching the bass, then maybe introducing new bass will help. But, since you are having a hard time removing enough by angling, that will entail another visit from the electroshock boat to remove all the LMB that are smaller.

As for the lime, what is your alkalinity, pH and hardness levels? Without knowing those numbers, it's hard to say whether liming the pond is warranted or not.

Sort of like asking the doctor what medicine to take without the seeing the doc.
