Very good pics IMO Shawn.

It's definitely got GSF genes in it - stripes by the mouth and yellow fin edges. But the vertical stripes on the side look like a BG trait to me.

It seems large for a possible F2 HBG offpsring spawned this year.

Shawn: Do you have pics of your original stocker HBG for size, shape, and coloring comparison?

I love these fish ID threads, even though I'm usually wrong. \:\)

Who wants to tackle a judgement based on the mouth size? I'm really lousy at that.
