That will be a tough one, but like Steve_ said, having ample habitat that the Fatheads prefer is key. Even just BG in the pond will eat a lot of FHM. Blocking off the area won't help after the BG pull off a spawn, I have had BG swim into a cage that had 1/4" mesh and they stayed there long enough to grow too big to swim back out.
