I have fished out 5 LMB small bass. I have been targeting them and yet can seem to catch many of them. I have started to catch lots of BG now, caught 11 of them last Saturday and 12 last Sunday (various sizes for 3/4 lb down to 5". I did stock 600 4" BG in the pond with 10lb of FHM (I did this to help the BG survive) and I am seeing BG everywhere! They are starting to come to the AquaMax starter pellets too. The 9 CC still come to the feed every time and I can catch them easily with bread balls.
The fish population seems to making a fast turn around. As I stated earlier. I never saw a small fish at all for the first month I owned the property. I have been adding fish structures in various spots. I am now seeing lots of 4" BG along the shore, I saw a school of several hundred small 1" fish by the dock, and last night my son took a small net and dipped it in the water and he caught at least 3 1/2" BG each time he dipped it in the water.
