where can I buy these near Austin?

Also where can I buy some Floridas in larger sizes? Thanks

Make the drive to Buffalo and get the best at Overton’s. I made a 3 hr drive from North Texas. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Lone Star Legacy is their signature strain of Florida bass.

I bought my pure florida strain lmb from Overtons in Buffalo tx. also. Several hour drive but worth it. My lmb were 4-5 inch long when purchased. Also got all my cnbg from them too. Very nice.

Thanks for the referrals!! We have worked very hard to provide the highest quality product for our clientele. This display of grass roots networking on the pond boss forum demonstrates that our efforts have paid off dividends. We appreciate it!

We chipped and DNA tested our Lone Star Legacy Bass broodstock (pure Florida) last year before the spawn, and then we tested fingerlings also. So now we can guarantee that these are certified genetics. The DNA results are available by request.

Unfortunately the pure Florida genetics are difficult to feed-train, so we offer these genetics in fish up to the 3-4" size. Growing them out further requires live food, reducing profitability on a fish farm, so those larger sizes of florida bass are difficult to find.
