Just read it...outstanding piece from Dr. Willis. Makes perfect sense, and it is easy to understand how so many fisheries suffer from 'down sizing' of the top-end bluegill size structure due to overharvest. Releasing the beasts is at least one way we can preserve fisheries for large panfish, especially bluegills.

Here is an article that explains the Cuckold and even shows a picture of a Cuckold being "sneaky" with another female and male. Doctor Bruce's name is also mentioned.
