I'm wanting to add some baitfish to a 20ish acre pond my family owns. It's slam packed full of fish even though we keep every single bass we catch out of it and have for years now. What is going to give me the best bang for my buck? My concern is that if we add something small like shiner minnows that they will all be eaten before they get big enough for the small fish to lay off of them which will give them a better chance to reproduce and keep repopulating themselves. However, I know nothing about adding something like shad??? maybe that will grow quicker to a closed system. Anyone have any advice on do's or don'ts?
