I'll have to recheck which magazine that I read it in. It was either Bass master or Bassin' I did find more on this site under choosing types of fish. Others have heard about it and some are very afraid of the idea. They think that it is a gimmick. They feel that these crosses will revert back after breeding with the local fish. Maybe so, but wouldn't the Florida strain still help? I don't know. Still looking for info. Thanks.
