Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Feeding What size area should feed be thrown

IMO I would make sure you get pellet trained LMB. Typical recommended stocking ratio of LMB to CNBG is 1 to 30. You are stocking at 1 to 5. IMO your LMB are going to need a LOT of supplemental feeding if you want them to thrive. You should also expect that you will see little to no recruitment from your CNBG and will need to ladder stock larger ones as you harvest them.

Not a pro, just my 1 cent
