stocking a lake, part 2

id like to start this by telling you all that i have not discussed this with anyone yet and plan to. but this is my thinking thus far.

my grandparents have a farm with two lakes. i believe they are roughly 1 acre or something (thats an out of the blue guess. i really dont know. havent been there in two years. its maybe 100ft by 150ft). i plan on (this spring/summer) stocking it with bluegill, channel cat, and lmb. all babies (i think you guys call them fingerlings). i may even throw a few bigens in there. i will fish a bit this year (for the big ones). next year, the population and their sizes will grow enough to fish more frequently. im going to stock them privately because although it costs a bit extra, itll go faster than the mdc stocking it.

what do you guys think?
