No one wants to talk to a cutting edge rogue Frankenstein scientist.
Bruce, I will be doing what you are doing and with some of your bluegills. Can't wait to document the results! Thank you for being my inspiration along with Bill Cody!
Shawn, Bill, and Norm,
Good points. I guess I just don't like the hybrids. To me they're ugly (just my opinion of course), and most of the fish producers push them in my region vs. regular bluegills. What irks me is they fail to tell the pond owners they will not adequately provide forage for their bass. And of course they exaggerate the size potential. Then there's the hype with that one fish from that particular producer that will remain nameless in that southern state. I have a friend that fell hook line and sinker for that one and I can't tell him any different. Funny thing is my bluegills have always been bigger than his.
