RBS. Easy to identify, not a greenie, it's longer than 2 inches.

Dude...taunting JHAP is like pulling the whiskers of a sleeping Lion - er, maybe a kitten.

I promised JHAP I'd throw a few male GSF into my pond and grow some big ones just for him... I have a non voting membership in the GSA. HAHA

Speaking of GSF - I have a confession. I was collecting RES in a Interstate 80 pit last Summer and caught several RESxGSH hybrids. The cross looks a lot like a pumpkinseed - and originally I thought they were but the GSF gape gave them away. I caught about 10 from 6-9" and they made my main pond along with the RES I caught that day. Yes, I have GSF [kinda] swimming in the main pond.

For now I shall ignore the lion/kitten comment.

I think that gsf was photoshopped like octomom in her bikini shot. Last Summer I fished in a man made residential lake. I caught 150 fish. 5 bullheads, got stuck for the first time in my entire life, ouch, 10 smallish bluegill and 135 gsf. None being over 3". None, zero. Predominate species, almost clones and all either stunts or dinks. And since I did not catch one freakish large photoshopped one, not one even 1/3 that big, I'm leaning toward stunts. I guess they are better than goldfish.

Traitor!!! You realize I can never drive my fish truck anywhere near your ponds now! I can never allow the sanctity of all other ponds to be polluted by even the stench of the GSF!!! There is not enough sanitizer or one stong enough ensure safety for others! Please tell me you fell onto the darkside AFTER I was there last!!!! Do I have to buy a new transport truck now TJ?

Eldorado Jeff, my Eldorado pond should be full in a week. Might have finally broken this cycle of drought years, saints be praised.

Wow...I never thought my confession would illicit this kind of response. They are only HALF GSF...doesn't that provide enough of an arm's length from fully joining the FEDERATION?

I would imagine by now we're up to full pool. As for the rest of you mongrels, I don't have the energy to properly respond to you this morning but know this. GSF are coming to your pond. They will hide amongst BG fish stock. They will be carried to you pond via bird. They will swim down creeks or swim up spillways. No body of water is safe. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. We are the GSA.

TJ? Do I know a TJ? I knew a Tom H once, but he was sucked into an abyss by the beauty of a horrible, deceptive, and vile creature. I'll miss my friend! Even though we are free to make our choices, many often try to ignore the consequences. TJ, I still love ya buddy, but now we'll have to negotiate! hehehe
