I have one of those ponds that lack LMB recruitment. I hardly fish for LMB so I don't know what I have other than what friends catch or what I catch while fishing for BG.
I guess I need to go "trash fish" fishing and catch some LMB to see what I have.

I am trying to grow out some LMB fingerlings in my sediment pond (no predators) to supplement stock LMB in my main pond so they will control the BG better.
I was shooting for a pan fish pond and looks like I am ending up with BG numbers more suitable for a large LMB pond.
Shucky darn.
