Thanks Bill. I agree it will not be easy and that is why the prior post had the "how to " and their comment - " that while Micropterus salrnoides X Chaenobryttus gulosus hybrids could easily be produced and reared, they were sterile. " .

Just in case he missed it I would suggest the reciprocal cross LMBf X WMm as it has a higher % chance from both studies 104% and 103% mean range and results in a bigger (better fish). After all we are after hybrid vigor and a sterile fish ! \:\)
