Thanks, guys! I have been targeting these big fish with the hopes of a 12 inch or maybe 2 pound class hybrid. I am guessing they will go either side of 1 1/2 lbs, with a top weight of 1-10 or so.

I have researched hybrids and replicas for them on the net and 11 to 11 1/2 in fish go about 1.85 lbs or about 1 lb 13 ozs. I don't think these fish are quite that heavy. Two years ago, Linda caught a massive 11 7/8 inch hybrid that we think was close to two. That fish is on my photos page and recieved over 400 views. If that fish is still around, I'm thinkin over twelve inches and two pounds...which would be the one I'm lookin for!
