Thanks for the quick reply and for the welcome. I stocked the HBG at around 3-4" 3 years ago. They were very little compared to where they were last year. The bass were put in the following year at about 4-6".
I will try fishing, never thought of that!
The pond is 12 ft deep and about 0.35 acre.
Here are pics of each late last summer.
