Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations F1 LMB

50 /acre at the most if you want trophy bass. this is of course stocking fingerlings bass and assumes your forage base is established first.

Second generation should be 25% pure FLA 25% pur Norhern and 50% mixed. The mix is not a F1, meaning it is not a cross from pure Northern and pure Florida. Future genrations will be a mix of all the genetics mentioned. If your goal is for trophy you may want to stock 100 F1 and 50 pure Florida in a 3 acre pond to provide a little more on growth side of things, but keep in mind your management is much more important. What I mean is fertliization, feeding, harvest. Proper management is the key and genetics is just the start.
