Welcome Redd. I like your idea of a cold water fishery, quite a few on here have similar ponds. The CC seem to be the puzzler, for me at least. Together with the RBT, the YP, and the smallies, they make up a pretty large predator base....those FHM probably won't last long.

Have you given any thought to additional forms of forage? Even with supplemental feeding, a diverse and plentiful natural forage is a huge asset.

Unless you really like to eat CC, I would pass on stocking them. If you want them for the table, harvest young, and never release one.

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
