<p>Congrats on how quickly you have gotten those northern-strain into high gear, Tony! I know firsthand it's not always a straight line of progress, so it's clear you have done an exceptional job with those ponds. And, I know how difficult it can be to take a new direction, even just a shift rather than a one-eighty, so I admire the boldness that entails. </p>

<p>I'm with you Walt....one day, we'll get our photos.</p>
<p>Really impressed with our northern strain ponds this year. Fish are looking absolutely awesome, and, you heard it here first......I'm backing off on the HBG program in order to focus on the northerns.</p>

<p>That's a heck of a northern-strain bluegill, Tony! I don't doubt you a bit - I've seen the photos you have posted of other bluegill from that pond. If she's as fat as the one you posted a photo of a few weeks ago, she'd probably peg 32 ounces. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Here's to hoping we both get photos of them at some point. I suppose they didn't get big by accident but maybe we'll luck up and catch them on a day they're not paying close attention to what they eat. </p>

<p>I know the feeling Walt. All summer, I have watched for this one, particular fish in one of our native BG ponds. It's a female, and she is a sow! She doesn't come to feed every evening, but she's unmistakable when she does.</p>
<p>Like you, all I have to go on is my experience.....I've tried to catch her on numerous occasions, but no joy. I feel she is an honest 12".</p>
<p>Nice going Walt, I'm looking forward to the day when you, or a client, ties into him and you get that photo.</p>

<p>Thanks, guys. I too would love to see a photo of him, Carl. Just give me a holler anytime you want to head down this way and we'll see if we can get him on the line!</p>
