Longears are fun to catch IMO. The size I would think is the main factor. If they grew larger I think someone would like to try to raise them. I have considered trying to catch 50-100 in the wild and putting them in one of my small ponds that should not have many if any predators in it just to see if they would take and what kind of numbers they have compared to BG.
I have stocked 2 in my pond. I started with just 1 as he was a pet for a while but way too aggressive for the other tank mates.
I will be curious to see if I ever catch or see them again, but if they take to the feed it may be a nice size one some day.
I may put some more in later, but I figure they would just cross with the BG or GSF making even smaller hybrids.
Will keep everyone posted though.
