Alright, I've got more questions (still tossing around ideas for fixing up my friend's pond).
I realize that the pure Florida largemouth will not live up here in Southern Kentucky. However, I've been reading about the F-1 bass which is a cross between the Northern largemouth and the Florida largemouth. From what I've read, it seems that it can tolerate colder temps. Do you think it would survive up here?
Here is a breakdown of my hometown's yearly average temps:

One more thing.....I've ordered 10 tons of lime to put in the pond (5 tons per acre). However, since I have already begun fertilization with 4 lbs./acre of 10-52-4, would I be wasting my time to put the lime in now or should I wait until fall to put the lime in the pond?
Thanks.
