 Do I add gizzard Shad to 20 acre bass pond?

We started a largemouth bass pond nearly from scratch around 5 years ago. The population has done extremely well and we are very active management with the pond constantly harvesting 20 to 25 pounds of bass per acre annually. We see an abundance of 3 to 5 pound bass which is pretty big for Kansas but are not seeing anything bigger than that. I have heard mixed results about adding gizzard shad but our end goal is to have as big of bass as possible. Do we stock Shad this spring? The pond will very likely be expanded from 20 to 40-50 acres in the future as well if that changes any opinions and unfortunately crappie also got into the pond somehow but they are very few in number.
