Thanks Esshup, according to that, at 18.5 to 19 inches I should be real close to 100% weight to length ratio, granted I am rough guessing the weight and even the length I had to take a piece of wire and get his length then measure it later.

Setterguy, there is a fish hatchery around Curryville, I think that's actually the name of it, I have been dealing with Harrison Fishery though, which is a ways north of there, north of Mark Twain Lake I think, Hurdland MO is their address, have had real good luck with them.

All the really good ideas I've ever had came to me while I was milking a cow.
