We are a few days from stocking 2yrs ago. We initially stocked for a 1ac pond and are around 2ac now. 100CC originally stocked and 75LMB this Spring. I think the BH are relatively under control and believe the 2-4lb CC can keep them in check.
We have an unknown number of LMB that washed in and one caught yesterday was around 2lbs. Lots of GSF, GSH and 1000s of gizzard shad.
My goal is big BG.
BG recruitment seemed poor this year, likely from nest robbing trash fish.
I have not caught a gizzard shad in the last month but see multiple schools in open water. They are being eaten readily but know there are just too many.
Should we stock more LMB or CC? Or nothing and see what happens?
Option C: Will the gizzard shad overpopulate and ruin it all?
Please be straightforward!
