Maybe it's just these two, but does it seem to anyone else that big, heavy CNBG put more of their bulk on above the mouth than big, heavy Northern BG do? IOW, with two fish of the same length and size, does the CNBG's mouth seem lower than the Northern BG's mouth?
I believe the flat belly of 09-14-06 CNBG is due to stress caused by the 2nd hottest summer recorded in Texas history, as well as low water conditions.

Spring 03-10-06 CNBG has round belly.
