the woman that sold them to me said for my size pond once they get about a foot long they'll jump out of the water. I don't know how long it takes for a bass to get that big.
She's absolutely right. My dad has a small landscape pond in his side yard. A little bigger than yours, maybe 6' wide x 10' long x 3' deep. I put a few bass in it one summer and by fall they were all gone. Dad kept finding them dead on the lawn all summer.
