Re: Strangest Bow i Ever Caught
Probably a relative of this Frankenbow
He is a Political Science Major, could not make as a career.
UPS driver, failed, he failed at delivery boxes.
Tried box salesman, always a box salesman, and he still cannot think outside of the box!

Those are sunbows
Pequest hatches a lot of mutants like that and they have been posted wide and far over the recent years on various forums and Facebook.

“Mutant” exactly what F&W said.

Re: Strangest Bow i Ever Caught
If it was caught in PA it might be a triploid .

Re: Strangest Bow i Ever Caught
It's a Pequest fish and they are far more common than the hatchery would like. It is a common for that hatchery mutation. Triploidy trout will have a slightly smaller head sometimes than their body, but the body grows in a normal shape, just larger due to not growing reproductive organs.

Re: Strangest Bow i Ever Caught
Are the mutations from inbreeding? I know that tends to happen in aquarium fish.

That's likely, but I personally do not know myself.

Re: Strangest Bow i Ever Caught
First off, thanx to Rusty for the information. As a molecular biologist my interest was peaked. I went to the googles and after reading some papers I found a page with some pretty good information. Go here for a nice explanation:

Re: Strangest Bow i Ever Caught
Triploid trout are not currently raised by the NJ Division, but other states such as Idaho and California to name two do use them. We (Trout Scapes River Restoration LLC which is my firm) sometimes stock them as required and did so recently on a pond we constructed ot West. But the "sunbows" are just a genetic mutation is all.Bubba Zinetti wrote: ↑Mon Apr 29, 2019 10:11 amFirst off, thanx to Rusty for the information. As a molecular biologist my interest was peaked.
