.20 acre pond-that leaks/4-5' deep. Stocked 6/22/19 with 300 BG(supposed to be HBG, removed 100+/- so far), 100 RES, 3carp. On 8/20 added 300 HBG, + 21 5"HSB. 8/21 added 5 8" SMB, one 10" LMB , one 14" CC
RES and a few male BG for sunfish. And yes, I know, it's small (1/2") and pics are best I could manage. I took about 30 pics in differing light conditions and back ground colors, these were best 2.
My Bio says if Pectoral reaches across eye it's a RES and if it doesn't go across eye it's a BG, so guess I'll see if I can determine that maybe tomorrow. Had never heard that before.. I gotta get these guys a job so they can quit following my posts..lol
Now knowing RES or BG, I would lean toward RES. That's a good photo of such a small fish.
Yesterday evening I saw something I never thought I would see. There's a vernal pool beside a drainage ditch in my neighborhood. It was cutout in high water by turbulence. My son and I were looking in it for crayfish when a dead fish spotted my eye. It was a shark. So I guess someone with saltwater tank purchased a shark egg case and when it hatched it ate his prized tank specimens ... or may there was nothing in the tank it would eat and it starved. Not sure why it was put there because there is no way it could live in freshwater.

That's encouraging, shorty and ewest, appreciate you both for adding your insight to this. jpsdad, that IS a weird deal there.. We found a Bull shark scull in NE several years back not too awful far west of shorty at a reservoir on the beach in Southern NE. It was verified and content of bone provided proof it had been put there(didn't grow there).
