Do you love big bluegill?

BBG member Tom Hudson posted this photo over at PondBoss. Pretty unusual specimen here, a natural hybrid of a Redear and a Green Sunfish.

Thanks for the photo TJ!

I neglected to point out that the arm in this photo belongs to Scott Schillig.....pond management pro, business owner, and a heck of a nice guy. I'm very fortunate to be able to count both he and TJ among my friends, and my ponds as well as my fish have benefited greatly from their expertise and advice.

Thanks guys!thumbs up
