Shorty, what all do you see? When I study the photo, I'm drawn to the eartab's lack of projection onto the body, the narrow margin with what I would call an orange border, and the creamy light yellow area on the "belly". I always considered all three of those as female RES traits.
I do catch a fair number of BG x RES hybrids, but don't recall ever having taken any females in that regard. To me, this fish displays several RES markers, but I can't rule out any BG influence in there somewhere. But, unless I'm way off on deciphering my notes, this was a female.
"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"
If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1) And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1) Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT? PB answer: It depends.
