In a LMB/BG pond, you are mostly going to catch BG - that's how predator/prey numbers work.

I've read that you didn't like how things were and that you are (at least) worried about how things are now, but what do you want the pond to be? Define that and you can get some tailored advice (some of it useful) instead of having us tell you what we'd do to get what we want in your situation.

If you want to emphasize large bass, you might want to add some new LMB genetics, but otherwise you are set.

If you liked catching tons of LMB, but want them bigger than stunted - well, that ain't gonna happen.

As Bob Lusk always asks, "What are your goals?"
