nvm i was looking on tractor supplies website and they have 8ft oval water troughs that are 2ft deep so ill just put something over it so nothing eats my prized fish and so he doesnt jump. also lookign to get a pond filter considering this bad boys 755.2 gallons. but here in GA it SOMETIMES freezes so im still unsure if he'll live? 2ft deep in shade?
yes i am buying a rubbermaid tub 25" plus deep from tractor supply down the road. Also adding a heater and pond filter.
Then getting another 300 gallon tub to raise fathead minnows as forage along with pellet feed and other stuff. the bass shoudl do fine. buying 1-5 F1 bass that are already pellet trained. oh and also adding aerators to both tanks

If you are lucky enough to get a male LM Bass, then I would say he would be fine in 300gal, but if you have a female, she may grow a little too large for that size.
That tub is not a very good choice for the LMB. first why would you want to keep a fish you only saw the top of, next regardless if the tub freezes solid or not if it freezes, on top which it will, the oxygen supply will be depleted and it will die, unless you heat it all winter, which will, because of the heat loss of this container, cost you a fortune.
