With your set up Frank, why not take some 12" or larger Florida like the Legacy lmb and then add a male or two of northern strain lmb and add them to your forage pond. The legacy is supposed to be an aggressive Florida and add an aggressive large northern male and let them breed in your forage pond. I would then thin the herd by selecting the fastest growing fingerlings (most aggressive). You might come up with Franks tigers smile Sounds like some fun. You interested in renting out your growout pond and see if we might produce a mean mouth smile After draining your forage pond, how long does it take for the pond to fill to where you can restock?
