To harvest all bg caught?? That is the opposite of what I understand to grow large lmb. I have removed a few bg but that was due to having too many bg and could not get lmb reproduction. If you are seeing that, then reduce some bg. But, As I understand it's all about forage, forage and more forage grows large lmb with the exception of too many lmb in a given body of water. So, keep the 9" GSH and remove every lmb 14" or less. Leaving some of those 3lb lmb to grow and eat those 9 inch shiners. Ponds are regional and different regions have different paths to growing fish. So, Indiana may be different from here in E. Texas. Sounds like you have been doing something right
