Bill, I hope you would.
A bar fish is a Morone mississippiensis, or also called a yellow bass. They're the smallest of the "striper" fish, and I think the TX state record is around 3.5# They're a nice fusiform shape, they only spawn once a year, populate the same open water as HSB, dine on small fish and crustaceans, and the vast majority are less than a pound. Kinda like a spiny yellow perch.
If, and only if, I ever stocked them in a new pond, I would think you'd have to have a small hatchery pond to keep 4-5" BG numbers up.
I wish I was 20 years younger. I'd so throw rocks at every you can't do that in a pond window I could find. Don't throw any rocks at me, but yellow bass are considered an invasive species in the Midwest. https://globegazette.com/dnr-battling-ye...fa4eae2a81.html
