I was wondering if anyone has seen a growth chart for F1 Tiger Bass... I have done a little tracking on my fish this weekend and I am wondering how my F1's compare to others... Caught 17 F1's this weekend and measured and weighed each one. Pond was rennovated and killed off in 2008....stocked with CNBG, RESF, FHM, GS, TFS, CRAWFISH, all in 2008. Forage fish were allowed to grow and prosper before we stocked 200 3" - 6" F1's in March of 2010. In May of this year we stock an additional 2000 CNBG and 100#'s of Tilpia and 10,000 FHM.
This spring we harvested 50#'s of 12" or smaller F1's.
This weekend as I said earlier we caught 17 F1's.
The ranged in length from 15.2 - 17.1" The 15.2 inch fish weighed 1.7 pounds and the 17.1 fish weight 2.8 pounds. Every fish that we caught was very thick and healthy. I can list each fish if neccesary but can anyone chime in and let me know how they think my F1's are doing?
As of today they have been stocked for 15 months.
PS. My 6 year old daughter also caught a 4.2 pound Tilapia bream fishing with a Barbie rod / reel, bobber, and #6 hook with live worms.
Thanks!!
7 Acre +/- pond. Stocked with CNBG, RESF, GS, TFS, FHM, in March - June of 2008, Stocked with 200 3" F1 Tiger Bass in March of 2010... Additional stockings of CNBG, Tilapia, FHM in May of 2011.April of 2012 and May of 2013.
