Yep, that's a red. They are a saltwater fish that will tolerate different degrees of salinity. They have been successfully stocked in various Texas power plant lakes. I'm not sure whether they have successfully reproduced in any of the lakes but they survive and grow.

Cajun eateries serve a lot of blackened redfish. I'm not too wild about them on the plate.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
