I was very pleased with those two fish. I have been removing any hybrids I catch or any RES that do not quite look like I want. I hope to have a pond full of ones that look like those two and hope to raise some up to around 11 inches and a couple pounds.
With the SMB in there to keep the recruitment in check, I think I have a shot.
Those two were caught on a curly tail jig while cast and retrieve trying to catch small SMB. They hit it on the move.
