The first fish looks more like Overton's CNBG to me. If so, it is 2 yo or less. That gives hm several more years of growing time. He's probably maxed out length wise, but I expect him to add girth from now on. A shade under 1.5 pounds.


Wow what a beauty and only 2 years old! Impressive.

I see nothing wrong with that fish. But that's my opinion.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
