This is by far the largest one. most have been 13-14 inches. There was some variance in size when Overtons brought them to me.
I keep worrying about getting them hook shy, but they are so dang fun to catch. My boys LOVE them. We havent even targeted the bass at all this fall as the hybrids are so much fun to catch. I think live bait, or pellet lure they will remain catch-able.
. I still feed 4x daily, and then hand feed some LMB aquamax. They hammer the big pellets now.
I am so glad I stocked them. I hope to do a year class every year so they are stair stepped in size.

Yeah good luck with continuing to catch them! I done the same as you loved catching them HSB but all of a sudden they won't bite a pellet on a hook for nothing. Even without a bobber the just flash at it and swim away! I would be careful how much you fish for them. I'm just saying. You may have a little better luck with a fly rod??
