wow thanks for the detail. I did in fact stock 100 RES in June 2019....so, they should be in there. I've never caught a RES on a hook....but have caught a few 3"r's in a cast net....so know they must be there.
hopefully it doesn't become a widespread problem. My pond quite obviously has a leak, as it won't get over 3.5-4' deep. Hopefully my HBG grow up like yours some day...as mine aren't near as dark colored as yours are. Mine are more long ( less fat)...it's fairly common to catch one 8"....but not "tall and fat" like yours.
