I have had good luck with LMB/Walleye with a minnow, crawfish, and bluegill/pumpkinseed forage base. (Pond is quite fertile)
In particular my walleye appear to have spawned last year after being stocked in November of 2002 at a length of 2-4".
The young of the originally stocked walleye are now at 5-7" with the adults 16-18".
Points of interest:
Pond is 1 1/2 acres, 8' deep max with an average of about 3'
Sees 18" plus of ice over winter but is constantly aerated at this time.
During the spring spawning time I pump a constant supply of water in from a drainage ditch. This might be part of the spawning success key. (The walleye gather in this area of inflow)
Rocky bottom for 50%
All to say I have had success with walleye and am happy with my decision to stock them.
