Agree with Bill's comments !!!!
I would never suggest to a new pond owner that trophy LMB is the right goal for them. You need to be an experienced angler/pond manager to make that choice based on lots of data. It is not the best choice for the vast majority of pond owners. As an aside in my personal opinion, you need at least a 10-acre pond to have that goal as a realistic choice. There are many downsides to trophy LMB ponds including, location, poor catch rates, poor ability to control population imbalances, time periods required and difficulty determining progress. Having said that - everyone is entitled to manage their pond as they choose - we are here to try and help.
