Thanx for that Theo.I noticed that some have horizontal bars and some have vertical bars.Are the daarker fish some kind of shellcracker?

My uncle has asked me to catch some LMB for his pond and after i was reading i think he has to much forage.So far i have put in 32 adult LMB.

It will be years before they start to bite a lure with all the food they have.I caught this poor LMB that was 22 inches long and barely 3 pounds.My friend wanted to put him out of his missery but he had som pep to him.So i put him in a stunted BG pond and told him to live his remaing life with plenty to eat.

My buddy laughed at me for doing this , but that why i catch more than he does.I respect the fish i love to catch.Should i have put him out of his missery???Thanx
