Large Gizzard Shad. That is what trophy bass eat. I have a 2 acre pond with trophy bass in it. I stock a thousand Gizzards in there through out the year. If you can get 12"+ Gizzards they may take hold and reproduce in the pond and not need to be restocked. Threadfin do work but a good population of bass can eat them up quick. Plus like stated cold winters can wipe them out.
