I did not think I was rolling the dice very much since the seller of these fish sells lots of them into this area twice a year.

Surely they will not do worse than any of the other ponds that stocked them.

Now taking them much further north? I would agree with your warning.

So far they seem to be doing fine. I'll be sure and let the forum know if they perform poorly or winterkill. I should have pure fish of each, then the intergrades starting this year. So for a few years should have some observational anecdotal evidence.
