My opinion and experiences with walleye are to stock the perch, walleye and shiners in the new larger pond. Leave out the BG as the walleye will not control their numbers. Even some smallmouth bass added will not adequately control the BG. The walleye and larger perch will eat some yearling BG during winter but not enough to control their numbers. the pond I think will become overrun in time with BG even if you have 100 walleye per acre ladder stocked. The walleye will primarily prefer small perch and shiners as main forage items.
Keep the BG and GSF in the smaller ponds and you may eventually need to add LMB to grow bigger BG for harvest.
