This Pacu was 1 3/4" long 15 months ago. He is now 20" long and 5lbs. I stocked 100 on March 24 05. A poacher has taken about 60, I have taken 6 and will remove any others that are caught. They are eager eaters, there is no plant life in the pond. He was caught on a hotdog, I caught another one a few minutes later on a commercial bread mix that was strawberry flavored. They eat most anything. A really good fighter, many runs and several jumps.
A friend from Sweden is holding the fish.
