Leave out the HBG in all three ponds as mentioned above.

In addition to ML's possible use of Shad (I am assuming Gizzard Shad for the main pond, possibly Threadfin Shad in forage pond(s) but I bet OK is too cold for them. I doubt anyone would recommend Gizzard Shad in the forage ponds), you might also consider Golden Shiners in the main ponds and forage pond(s).

Something I will suggest for you and others to consider is stocking the two forage ponds differently. Does anyone think this would have any benefits in terms of avoiding forage species competition?
