Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk! Add about 50 adult (12in) male LMB. Males because they will stay in the size range to eat 2-5in lepomis for a longer time period and there will be no LMB reproduction to make the pond swing to the other extreme (LMB crowded). Woo-woo-woo-woo! An easier way would be to combine that with trapping and seining some knuckleheads out. Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk! First you need to decide if you want LMB reproduction in the management plan. Rrrowf! Rrrowf! You could add some HSB but they may not do so well if you have a shallow hot water situation. Ngah-ngah-ngah!
