Do the hybrids get quite a bit larger than regular BGs?

Thanks again.

If you really want to do LMB, you can, as long as you're aware of the downsides. From the experts on here, LMB will stunt in a small pond due to there being too much competition for food. If you want to produce bigger ones, you'll need to constantly cull the smaller bass to allow the bigger ones room to grow, but even then, a 1/12 acre pond might only hold a couple "bigger" bass. If she would be happy catching smaller LMB, then I'd say go for it.
