I'm curious, how are you doing on your goal of Trophy LMB?

What do you feel is holding you back from the next size class?

While I love fish with teeth (Walleye, Sauger, Saugeye, Pike, Musky...), the addition of an apex predator would make me really think through my stocking. Looks like you are talking about stocking (20) fish. Catching those (20) may prove a difficult endeavor should you decide to remove them later. If it's a bonus fish application, I might go half the rate and if I felt like it wasn't enough....stock a few more in a few years or ladder stock them in as they are true hybird and won't reproduce. Ladder stocking would hopefully also prevent the fish from aging out in one group.
