Is your water cool enough for good YP growth?
Bob is well south of I-40, one of our important fish geographic break points.
However, Snipe's YP seem to be thriving at his location in NW Kansas.
I believe Snipe's AVERAGE water temperature will be significantly lower than the OP's pond. However, I am not sure that the summer peak water temperature in the OP's pond would be too much higher than Snipe's water temperature. (He is located in an area with a huge seasonal temperature differential.)
I don't know which number is most important for YP to thrive outside of their "ideal" range. I will leave that discussion up to the actual fish experts.
