DD1 - I look forward to your results from using FHM, BG/GSF and CC. I think if enough CC of mixed sizes are present they could control BG numbers. I would start with at least two sizes of CC. 5"-7" and 8"-10" with fingerling BG. Feed the CC until the first BG spawn; then stop feeding them. If you don't feed the CC for 1st year then 1st year stock a few spawner size BG with the fingerlings to create food for the smaller CC.
