thanks ya'll. I have been managing the smaller pond, about 1/3 acre. The cc have grown to 3-4 # in a yr and a half. I will start off with 25-30, then same number later depending on the catch rate.

Still looking fot the advice of stocking 8 inch LMB next spring to go immediate bass heavy, and wondering if they will spawn, or should I add some smaller ones to clean up the small BG.
