Thanks for quick response!! Well I don't have to have Bass. and 100X250ft is probably not big enough pond for large Bass anyway. So I can choose Crappie instead. Any idea how fast Black Crappie grows compare to Largemouth Bass in first two years?

I’m in Central Florida (zone 9b). I have a rectangular shaped pond of 100ft X 250ft size. With various depth but mostly about 11ft on the dry season and 14ft on the rainy season. Its mostly clean, there are some water weed and few trees on the corner. the water is somewhat dark composition. I caught few variety sunfish, catfish, golden shiners and spotted what i thought was tilapia. never caught a Bass so far. I was wondering if this pond large enough to stock some Bass. I have absolutely no experience. I’m seeking some suggestion on what type of bass might be best suitable for pond like this if at all. I would prefer something that is fast grow and good to eat. On Florida fresh water fish pamphlet these are the Bass I see. White Bass Hybrid Bass Striped Bass Spotted Bass Largemouth Bass Shoal Bass Suwannee Bass Peacock Bas
