Thanks LSquid for the examples of what you've done, appreciate that..
JPSDAD really liked your analysis and I think I had confused things a little I was still planning on the FHM as a starter forage mix and then following up with the BG and CC and probably bass a year later.... But I really like the potential that you described of a few limited single sex crappie, so if I want that, then the BG and LMB probably would be a problem in the pond since they would eat all the FHM... I guess my decision needs be really big fish or good numbers of fish. My thoughts are that the BG and LMB would most likely give me the fun for kids pond that my wife would like to have. That goal would be bass around 1-3 lbs and gills hopefully over 7", I would plan on culling bass and gills depending on the condition of the fish. Leaving a few channels in for clean up and occasional (ladder) harvest on 1 to one basis. I think I need another pond, I want to do both things... Wish I could get clearance to dig another one.. Thanks for the info, it's really fun to consider... Jeff
