Went out to some guys house.. was going to buy some koi.

Didn't really like anything he had, but I walked out with 3 blue gills. FREE.

2 large, and a small baby.

AND, just by luck, the guy caught us a male AND a female.

Both about 8".

He's got tons of bluegill, talking about maybe getting some and try to sell em for fellow pond owners.

But these are going to be part of my breeding project. :grinno:

These are from a private stocked pond.. nothing new has been added in about 6 years. He said I can have all I want!
 
Congratulations. Any chance for a pic of the baby? I got a ton (of what I think) are baby bluegills. They are like 1/8-1/16 of an inch right now. I am gonna raise them to a few inches then give them away or sell/trade them. And I might just keep one. I am gonna start up breeding some smaller sunfish too and maybe distribute some to other people.
 
Not the best pic...

Nice "yellow" macrochirus.

Will be fun if you get them to spawn.

Im trying to do some centrarchid hybrids in the near future.
