Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations Look who got invited to dinner last night!

Convinced the wife to let the baby sleep and let's catch our dinner. Had these in the bucket in about 10 minutes. Wife caught the biggest on the last cast.



Question...all bluegills?

I shall number them:

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
10 11

I think all BG. #9 looks the most iffy to me, but it's also about the most wilted.

"All Coppernose BG?" would be the next question - I can see the bar on some of them, very clear on #11.

Looks like you had a nice supper.

To much glare on pic to tell. But I would guess --not all BG (depending on what "bluegill" means).

Can't tell on many for sure. The bottom right one is a male CNBG. Up one row and to the right looks like at least part RES. I would think that they are mostly CNBG. Not sure there are any BG in south Fla. unless they were transplanted from the north country ( say about Tallahassee).

Next up -- what do you think.

They're all fish, however, number 9 is an alien fish.

I would agree that most are CNBG.
Maybe #1 and #9 RES.
I know that I have over 1,000 of these that live under my dock. It took about four days beginning in May for them to take to the Purina Gamefish Chow. I feed them every evening by hand, but apparently not enough. Some are still on the skinny side.

It is a real blast to see a 4-5 pound largemouth slam one while the frenzy is on.

Wow that looks like a great dinner.
I was tryin' to catch some of the BG in my pond last nite and olny caught 2, one 3 inch and one 4.
I'm starting to think the Bass or CC have had a better dinner then me.

your thinking thst 1-9 could be res? Wouldnt they show the red ear tab or are you saying they are a mix off spring. to my untrained eye they all look the same. #6 does seem abit different but it could be the lighting

I was thinking #1 & 9 were RE as well...right body shape. Man, the CNBG look fantastic...wish they'd survive Iowa winters. Something else to catch!!!
