I don't have a pond. I'm not educated on maintaining fisheries.

But it seems to me, if you have nice quantities of 10+" crappie in a relatively small pond, the crappie aren't your problem.

I'd harvest more of the 1# bass if it were my pond, and probably some of the larger crappie in order to make room for those younger 10"-ers to grow to 12+.

You raise an interesting question when comparing a smaller bass to a larger crappie in terms of which is more predatory and which is going to compete more for the limited amount of food.

Wish I knew more about it to give a knowledgeable answer but I just don't know.
