Sorry guys i should have clearified. They were spotted bass not rock bass. I personally have caught a few spotted bass and I know I dont read alot about managing them on this forum but im looking forward to seeing if spots can cross with the f1's. Spots have allways been a blast to catch around here and they make for some fine eating. I really dont think it would be to bad of a thing if they cross up what about you guys? But I am concerned with the bg survival there sure are alot of 6" spots cruisin around.
