Pond Boss Forums FISH & FISHING Show off your catch Unusual coloration on a BG

Luke even some of my trophy male BG [WR 130+] have that shrunken abdominal area...Dr. Bruce Condello [Bigbluegill.com] never seems concerned by it as a sign of poor performance, as the rest of the fish demonstrates very healthy characteristics. I have to admit though, when I see that shrunken area it suggests to me a reason for concern...just doesn't look right to me! One way to resolve this is to assess the WR of any fish with the shrink characteristic - it did set my mind to ease...at least a little bit.
