Good looking fish..... Just remember that its always cheaper and easier to harvest bass than stock minnows; most ponds & lakes will be AWESOME for 3-4 years after stocking bass and then the bass over populate and quickly deplete the baitfish population.

1lbs bass weight = 10lbs of forage fish; so every 1lbs bass that you harvest is like adding 10lbs of minnows to your forage base - last time I checked minnows were $10-lbs, so you save $100 for every base under 15" you harvest vs. stocking bait fish. While every pond is different a general rule of thumb is to take 10lbs of the most common size bass your catching per surface acre out of the pond.

Depending on how often you go out to the lease, it may be more beneficial for you to lime and fertilize these ponds vs. setting up fish feeders.
