Didn't weigh or measure, but was pleasantly surprised by the growth rate of the fish for less than a year in the pond.. Looks like this one is doing its job..

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.

It's the only LMB I have caught or seen for sure this year so far.. The BG have been feeding really well... Goals for this year are new aeration and start a bacteria program.. I have been reading a lot on carrying capacity and I am sure I am on the heavy side of it when it come to BG.. Have been removing several for table fare and plan on removing quite a few more this year...

6 inches of rain in 3 days helps.. Probably added 150,000 + gallons of water..
