Eric, I'm a neophyte when it come to pond raised HSB, but she looked healthy to me. Her weight was just a guesstimate, because I really am learning as I go here with the more fusiform shape of the HSB. The pic was also taken from the top to show her dark color. I've added 300# of tilapia this year, and am currently throwing about 20 pounds a day of fish food. I'm about as financially invested in these fish as I can get away with right now.
I caught this one this afternoon between tanks of Rodeo. 7.5.
