High density bass at 14" will weigh 1 lb or less. Remove 25-30 bass per acre for a good start. Transfer many of them to the pond for big BG. For big BG esp without pellet feeding, the water has to be bass crowded. Generally the more skinny bass crowded it is, the bigger the average size of BG. High cropping of BG recruitment results in more food for remaining BG. Supplemental offshore pellet feeding would really help you to grow bigger quality BG. You can make an economical fish feeder using a plastic garbage can and purchase the mechanical guts from Texas Hunter or other wild game feeder. Mount the feeder on a floating platform anchored offshore beyond shore based casting distance.
http://www.texashunterproducts.com/feeder-kits/Hampering the swimming ability of GSF and then release is good bass food. I think adding 40-50 midsize BG (4"+-6") pre-spawn will help a lot. Remember poachers will harvest some of your larger stocker BG. IMO CNBG will not perform well in your KY pit pond,, stick with local 'northern' BG which can and will with ample food get to 10", if they are not harvested or stolen first.
Creating a high quality fishery will be a big, big, BIG challenge as long as there is public trespassing access esp when word gets out once a quality fishery exists. One or a few good anglers can quickly and efficiently fish down a pond. There are a few old threads on the forum how to deal with trespassing. Brush infested shorelines deter angling trespassers.
Ideas & trespasser discussions.

Habitat at more than 13% to better amounts of 25%-30% of the total shoreline provides needed benefits for good fisheries. Look through my PBoss magazine 2016 issues Table of Contents and the index for several 2016 articles by South Dakota fishery guys focused on improving fish growth using added structure - habitat. Maybe ask for a subscription to PBoss mag for future long term fish growing info. A subscription can start with Jan 2016. There is a tremendous amount of fish growing and management information available in old forum threads. You can access it by googling it by using: Pond Boss forum then the subject.
Build and establish durable fish attractors (aka structure) located off shore and beyond casting distance from shore and out of reach of trespasser anglers. Do your best fishing using boat methods focused on the structure. Locate or anchor your fish attractors slightly beyond the maximum depth of your weed beds. Fish will loaf near attractor structure and often feed among or at outer edges of weedbeds.
See Pond Boss Mag May-Jun 2016: 14. HABITAT FOR FISH: IT’S COMPLEX. Dr Neal describes how to find a happy medium between an empty pond and one with too much habitat. Defines habitat, structural habitat, how they are different than structure-cover, do fish need cover, he enters the mind of a fish, how to design habitat, location of habitat, and amount of habitat. Included is a sample Structure - habitat placement map.
Spend lots of time this winter going through the lengthy Forum Archive thread dealing with structure types, cover, fish attractors and habitat; much of it is durable and homemade. Mark the locations with GPS or triangulation or your depth finder.

Visibilities of 2.5ft to 3 ft is still naturally productive enough to grow quality fish; just not as many fish as when a bloom has green hue water of 16”-2ft. Do you know about a secchi disk and its use?
http://forums.pondboss.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=92624#Post92624 Your weed beds, depending on the weed species, provide lots of invertebrates as fish food. Often there are high 100’s of inverts per square yard of weed bed. KNOW YOUR WEED SPECIES. You may be able to enhance the fishery by adding more productive submerged weeds such as American pond weed (aka longleaf pondweed). Also bulrush beds along the shallow angler side out into the water to 4-5ft deep will deter angling from shore. Bulrush beds allow more open spaces for fish to hunt through compared to cattails while also discouraging shore based angling. Note: soft and hard stem bulrush can grow to 6-8+ft tall spread relatively quickly and would eventually need some management - control in a 1-3 ac pond. Slender bulrush does not grow quite as tall(6ft) as soft&hard stem bulrushes. Know your weed species! There are herbicides that work well to reduce bulrush. Bulrushes and common rush are easy to transplant from local waters.
