If I understand it, your largest lmb are at 13" with low Rw? I think it was due to overstocking of lmb and then maybe a spawn. At this point, I think the TFS are a great idea if stocked in the 10,000 range. And your pond must be fertile to support the TFS. How many do u plan to stock and what size will be available? If lmb numbers are still high and you stock low TFS numbers or breeder size and low numbers, they may wind up just being a snack. TFS when stocked in the large numbers can be expensive. Don't miss understand, I love my TFS and I think they will help your pond. My point is I might want to take some of the pressure off the TFS till they get established or spawn in your pond (if stocked in low numbers). And the 1 to 3"bg may also be a snack, so I would add larger bg, ones that a 13" lmb can not eat. And Tp produce a lot of fry to feed the lmb so I would add them again this spring. They should take some of the pressure off the bg fry. It looks like from what I have read, your lmb numbers are still high?
