Year two feeding Optimal. I spent 1-1/2 hours on the dock yesterday and caught 8 this size plus 16 more. Making progress.

Tbar, that is a nice looking cnbg. I have been considering going to the Optimal because of Scott (esshup) reporting there may be less excess nutrients in a pond when using Optimal.
Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.

Tbar - Very nice, excellent quality BG and a great testimony for Optimal Fish Food. Those fish are well on their way to trophy status.
I think the 1st fish is a female and 2nd fish is a male. Notice the different shape of the opercular flap. Gular area is darker on the male than for female, a normal feature.

Nice fish. Are those 2 representative of most of your fish as to color ? Also where did you get them (source)? Thanks.
