It is not just about temperature. Competition. You could keep them in Florida if no other Lepomis present. They did well for 5 years until Bluegill and Greens got in. Even coexisted with Redear and Warmouth.

It is about many factors. That is why Arron could grow outstanding SMB in the heat of Arizona. PS hybrids may even have increased temp ranges as a genetic trait.

Not all Pumpkinseed nor Smallmouth Bass are equal. It is very unwise to assume all stocks have similar tolerances to something like temperature. This is especially true with species that occur over larger ranges with respect to latitude. I would not expect to see representatives from either species collected from the norther tier of states to perform well at lower latitudes compared to those from southern parts of their ranges.

This all drifted away from original intent.

Yeah, drifting is in my opinion, one of the best parts of the forum. You go in expecting one result, and the conversation takes an unexpected turn and before you know it you're learning and discussing something new. Trying to direct the course of a thread on PB is like herding cats... you make a suggestion and a course correction here and there, but the final destination is still somewhat of a mystery. And it's good.


"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.
