Thanks for posting, Cecil. I had not seen that yet. I like his throught process, and it's good to see the actual fillet weights. One of our guys is starting some work on distiller's dried grains (by product from ethanol plants) and soybean meal in fish diets. Both show a lot of potential to reduce diet costs, replacing some of the fish meal. They are doing a lot of yellow perch work. Anyway, I'll forward this to him. He may already have seen it, but perhaps not. Most of the sport fisheries demand for the hybrids dropped because of at least some concern over stocking a fertile hybrid into waters, but also because it was a little bit of a pain to get the broodstock. So, for a commercial industry, they'll have to find some way to get the broodstock consistently available.
