Thanks for the additional info.

Can you easily catch BG with a small hook and a bit of worm? If there is a good population of BG, then there should be forage for the bass.

The bass stocking numbers sound fine - in my non-expert opinion. Did you stock any fathead minnows or similar forage before you stocked the 100 fingerling tiger bass? Those fingerling bass probably could not eat much BG forage in their very first year.

Hopefully, some experts above my pay grade will drop into your thread.
