I was looking at that suggestion of 1000 HBG and 150 LMB too? There wouldn't be any LMB reaching 15"+. Methinks esshup made a typo on numbers.

What size is your pond, Mike? "Tyipical" Bass/Bluegill rates are 1500 BG and 75 LMB per acre in your area for decent sized, and plenty of both BG and LMB. Add about 150 RES for parasite/snail control. Since you already stocked 250 HBG and FHM, I'd personally add 1000 BG per acre and reduce LMB numbers to 50 per acre, if the pond were mine.

I'll be stocking a couple Macoupin County ponds next Tuesday...one might even have a Blue72Camaro...lol
