The gams will attack the FH's like a 7 yr old does ice cream. They are very aggresive toward other small fish.
Interesting Ewest, I don't recall ever reading that.
As for the rest of you knuckle heads it comes down to this. It is your inability to property raise GSF to a respectable size that causes you to dislike this magnificent species. Every fish will have the potential of stunting. Fill a pond with the the harlot-like Bluegill and without any intervention this rabbit-like mongrel will breed itself into oblivion. Yet you don't despise BG, you don't mock lovers of BG, you even create websites praising BG. Yet what does a BG do so well? It breeds and it breeds and it breeds. Place too many LMB into a pond and what will happen, it will stunt. Yet you unspoken spend hours an untold dollars to groom this pond pig to enormous proportions. You create fishing tournaments to catch the "green carp", you watch TV for tips on how to land this glutenous pond predator, you buy books on how to raise this voracious vacuum.
We fear what we don't understand. And you my sheep like masses have come to fear the GSF. You've been told scary bed time stories about how horrible this fish is. One mention of GSF and the hate mongering mantra such as this begins:
"Oh my, you have GSF in your pond? You poor miserable sole, all is lost, you are doomed."Rise above the petty jealousy. Dare to embrace what you have come to fear. See the GSF for what it is, an aggressive survivor, that has a mouth like a LMB, an attitude like a great white shark all packaged in a beautifully colored skin that looks as though a hand from heaven personally painted each and every fish.
Do not fall prey to the heretical blasphemers that spew their hatred. Come into the light. Come feel the love. Recognize the superiority of the GSF. Do not fall pray to the mindless dribble that is spewed by the detractors of this glorious fish. The have not raised 1+ pound GSF, they have not felt the fight that a this herculean species shall give, they have not experienced the explosion-like strike that a GSF can provide. They cover their inadequacy to grow this fish to a respectable proportion by reciting their hate filled mantras.
