Desirable Characteristics Of Hybrids Hybrid sunfish (a bass is a sunfish) in general exhibit a trait called hybrid vigor. This means that the hybrids can outperform their parental species in one or more ways. Rapid and superior growth is one way hybrid sunfish exhibit “hybrid vigor”. Largemouth bass, for example, are capable of attaining weights over 20 pounds, but we obviously see few bass this size! The rapid growth of the hybrids is partially due to the reduced reproductive capacity of these fish. Contrary to popular belief, these fish are not sterile; they are simply mostly male. This results in a population that has few females, and thus, spawning and reproduction are low. Yet another desirable trait of hybrids is their aggressive nature. Studies show they are easier to catch than other species of fish. Hybrids prefer the shallower areas of lakes and ponds and, therefore, are more readily available to fishermen than are the fish in deeper waters. This aggressiveness, high catch ability, and accessibility to anglers combine with their rapid growth to result in a true "trophy" bass fishing situation when properly managed!
Can we get some of these in my local lake please!
