Reading through some archives, I guess once thought or maybe it was the way hybrids were made through the hatchery that most would top out at 3/4-1lb. It now seems reasonable to get that 1-1.5lb HBG with good management. 1.75lb + even at the top end...and growth is pretty rapid . I am enjoying feeding mine ...very aggressive .
Sprkplug is getting very close to the 2# mark. He posted a picture of a really nice HBG of his in the last month or so. Maybe he will link to it or post it again.
