Be aware that the HSB stockers will not eat very big BG (3.5"-5")until the HSB are larger (16"-19") in 2-3 yrs after stocking. So the task of removing lots of BG will continue for several years if not longer. The bigger fish that you think are RES are probably large HBG.
HSB can be used two ways: 1. higher numbers / acre for better predation and likely slower growth rate of HSB - depending; 2. fewer HSB/ac and faster growth, but often less predation impact depending on density of HSB.
