Let's be clear. The bass will be caught from one private pond and moved to another private pond. I know law says i can't transport the fish to/from public water. But it says nothing about PRIVATE water. Should I happen to get stopped by our friendly neighborhood GW, would I get a ticket for anything?

Private should be fine, I would print out the regulations so if you are stopped they know you know and have researched it. You may also want to type out the address where you are catching the fish and the destination address and sign/date it, so all the documentation is completed before hand. With cell phones, it wouldn't hurt to have a photo of the fish being removed from the origin location...you will have the documentation. If you can't transport fish to a private location, then how can hatcheries sell fish to stock private ponds? Self critiquing...
