I think if I was starting again, I would go with FHM and BNM. I've read a few places BNM are also prolific and may be easier to sustain a polulation over time.
I am going to try to get BNM going next summer. Anybody see a downside?
Cody or Travis can better elaborate on the bluntnose minnows, but they get bigger and are more elusive than fatheads, so, in theory, they’ll last longer than fatheads. They are far more suited to waters without apex predators, like either bass species. They flourish in waters where yellow perch are the goal species.
Spotfin shiners is another species to consider in this scenario.
