Striking colors, absolutely beautiful!
It is amazing how they can have different color variations in the same body of water like that.
I'm going to try using spoons this winter for sunfish.

Bill, I see no difference in the strains , but isn't it odd that there are no redear in Geneva!!!!
Is there a reason why they are not there?

What a nice looking fish. Don't get any better than that.

Greg, is there a difference between the Cali strain and the Illinois strain?
I currently have three local lakes that have prolific populations of Redears.

Do you reckon the CALIFORNIA REDEAR could survive there? Need to stock them in the spring or summer so they could aclimate to yalls brutal winters!!!!!! You ought to bring that up at the next meeting!!!!!!! You have definatly shown some huge gill and pumpkin seed there what would redear do????

Quite possibly related to the gin clear water, and a Zebra mussel diet.
