Trying to correctly id res. Do res always have the red flick? I have caught some that are definitely res but others not sure. They were caught in a smb and res pond only(supposedly). I have some in my pond but sometimes can't tell between young bg or young res.
Small BG and RES are hard to tell apart, the red ear tab on RES often doesn't show up until they are 2-3" long.
Here is a picture of RES next to GSF or HBG.
A small RES with a barely visibly red ear.
A small RES without the visible red ear.
