I just wanted to add what I hope is appropriate closure for this, given how badly I mucked it up in the first place. First and foremost, I whiffed on the sex of this fish, and my apologies for that. I had thought all of this time that my male killed my female, but it was the other way around. I didn't pay close enough attention, and I will willingly wear the "moron" hat for that. That said, I reached back out to Ira regarding the province of both fish, and Ira's response was as follows:
"Your pair is from the wild location X male that Chris sold to FWP (freshwaterpredators, aka Jason), who paired it with a female from the General."
So the pair I had were grandchildren of the General, and the girl Matt has is his granddaughter. I hope this clears the province thing up. I wanted to post this here because I feel like I created a bit of confusion, and it all started with my mis-use of the terms "Magnum X" and "Rio Mag", then was further perpetuated by my mix up of the gender. Matt, if there is anything further I can do for you in this regard, or anything else really, just let me know, buddy. Thanks for being patient while I sorted some of this out. And Drew, thanks once again for the education on this topic.
