This post and past post on the same subject convinced me to change my stocking plans this past spring. I cut back on the numbers of F1 bass and increased the size. Than added HSB as 50% of my preditor population. I also decided to add a 100 blue cats,threadfins, and talapia to the mix too push my forage base previously of just bluegill/red ear to the limit without feed or fertilzing my 13 acre pond. It seems to be working because in the mornings and evenings those HSB school in the open water sending water every where. Thanks guys.
