HSB don't reproduce in ponds. They fit in pretty well with bass because HSB occupy a different niche, the open water areas.
SMB should do just fine in Virginia. However, they don't flourish in BOW with LMB, will get out competed. Also, SMB don't control BG nearly as well as LMB, you might think of stocking pumpkinseed instead as forage.
