My jury is still out. We've had some really big gully washing rains in the last few years. A number of my hybrid sunfish have washed out of my uppermost pond, through three settlement ponds, and into my main BG/LMG/HSB pond, which also has RES we seldom catch, big-bully and hookshy channel cats, a number of well behaved white catfish, and a renegade bunch of black crappie.
Im not sure of their true heritage, but we now have fish with mostly GSF characteristics, although they still retain some HBG characteristics and coloring. They are agressive and fun to catch. Evey one we catch goes into one of my culling cages for the next neighborhood fish-fry cook out.
I just don't know what kind of mutants I may end up with if they start to party with my pure strain BG, my RES -- and who knows, maybe even my love starved crappie.
