Hey! Some of us still haven't caught our first HSB! Ha, one of these days..
Thats a nice fish. My 6-8" have been in 18 months. Hoping they are getting near that size.. Are they good to eat? Fillet them similar to a LMB, or YP?

Cool to see your son so happy.


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
