A strong density of HSB would be at or slightly above the carrying capacity of the pond with LMB. This would be depending on fertility and/or pellet feeding around 60-80 lbs adult weight per acre. Remember this is an experimental use of HSB. Establish the bass first, allow them to get to 10"-14", then add the sunfish/BG. When BG are at 4"-6" and the need thinning of numbers consider at the start by adding a few add stock adult single sex LMB. Track your progress and keep us advised of this interesting predator application.
Others with experience similar to your situation should provide their experiences.
