caught this past weekend

This came from a three-acre pond I manage. The owner was fishing with a plastic worm for bass. He caught two other 'gills nearly this big, one on the worm and one on a spinner:

Nope, no fish steroids. But they do dine quite frequently on the best high-protein fish food made - I get it in bulk from Utah. A lot of the top hatcheries in the country use the same food.
