Tracy, I'm not sure this thing about "catchability" problems with pure Florida LMB is not exagerated.
Some maybe, but mostly from cactch and release causing conditioning problems or lack of angler skill.
I seldom target our pure Overton Floridas but when I need to cull they are easy to catch due to no fishng pressure.
I caught 12 in one aftrnoon in a couple of hours on a rattle trap last year. We are culling heavy to increse CBLMB genetics and we took out more thn 70 past year and a half - 22 since November.
May have something due to lack of experience of angler.
Anyway, just my thoughts - I don't think you will have a problem.
George
