Thanks for the ID, Scott, I would say that's it. It sure was a good looking bird.
Thanks for the compliments, JHAP. I almost felt like giving up on managing the GSF, because they just weren't growing, but they seem to be doing a lot better now.
I agree about the YP looking skinny. Next time I catch one, I will weigh it to and see what it says. I checked my fish scale for accuracy against my digital kitchen scale, and it was within a 1/2 oz, but I have to be holding the fish scale plumb before I zero it out, or else it is inaccurate. Maybe I was a little off when I zeroed it out, when weighing that perch.
