the addition of only a small amount of NLMB genetics caused poor catchability to disappear. FLMB that are potentially less susceptible to angling would be removed from populations at reduced rates relative to non-introgressed NLMB or crosses, allowing a greater proportion of FLMB to reach an older age and greater size.
This study is the first to show that with a few NLMB genes in the population the dreaded trait of reduced catchability can be greatly diminished.
That is great info Eric...thank you.
consider adding a few NLMB to your FLMB only waters to improve catchibility.
it's amazing to stumble along like me & sometimes get lucky
with decisions that may result in what I want...lol
