jpsdad, thanks so very much for linking BOCOMO's thread. Somehow I'd missed that whole thing years ago. Great read.

I went after my overpopulated LMB in a somewhat similar manner. I added adult GSF one year, then adult BG the next. This is the third summer the BG have been in there. There are relatively abundant young BG now from fry sized through 6" and 7". The original stockers are pushing 11".

Bass have yet to respond in any appreciable numbers. Give 'em time.
