I need some 10-12" about a dozen that are tagged florida females. I am in southeast Louisiana. What hatchery would you recommend?

I think Greg Grimes or American Sportfish could help you. Other members from closer to your area will be along with more suggestions.

Yes he delivered the one above to Miss. Others may have pure fla LMB for sale but they are hard to find. http://www.overtonfisheries.com/

jludwig thanks and you make a good point.
That fish is a combination of proper management and forage and good genetics. Those fish ,some from Todd and some from Greg, were hand selected. A lot of people are entitled to credit for the results including Bob , Bill Cody , Todd , Greg and George (his CNBG grandbabies are part of the forage genetics).
