New stocking 13 months ago, stocked 200 LMB. Probably caught over half of them this year, 4 of them have been a different color than the others Just coincidence ? Pigment? Different genetics ? These 4 were caught at different times on the year in different areas of the pond They seem to be heavy by weight but not thick as the others The photo makes this one look skinnier than it really is
I’m sure it’s not Male vs Female Pretty sure it’s not water clarity or habitat 90% of the time I fish between 6 - 7 pm, so that probably doesn't factor in
Photos of typical LMB color in my pond vs one that looks like it’s been eating gold flakes
