Just to inform those of you that were following this I was told everything was legit and documented with my entry, but due to unique circumstances and "unwritten guidelines" it cannot be accepted. I was told The fish grew "larger and bigger" than a "natural fish" could because of the "environment and artifical feeding program."
Should we tell them feeding fish an artifical diet in a pond is common place now?
No big deal. I'm just happy that I was able to grow a fish this big out of the pond due to my management skills. I think I can get them over 3 lbs. as they have a few more years to live.
