JoshMi You said The RES were 2-3” at stocking from Stoney creek fish farm in Grant,Mi. To me that fish in your first picture looked to be 2"-2.5" however there was no length gauge in the picture. Normally size class fish from a fish farm have a pretty wide variation of sizes esp those in the 2"-3" group. Those could have some 1.5" to 3.5".
