I bet most, if not all of the folks in the first category spent some serious time in the second category to begin with.

What would I NOT do again?

1) Bother putting HBG into a pond with regular BG. I don't thinks they have enough advantage in growth to justify worrying about managing around the Green Sunfish genes.

2) Stock GShiners in a pond where I (now) want to concentrate on big BG. They should be wonderful forage if you want big Bass; for big BG they're just competition.

3) Respond in any way to Cecil's April Fool's Day post.
