Hey Dick,

I think you're right about Momotaro bouncing back in a big way. There showas to me are especially coming out with very good results. When also dealing with the Maedas, they're top notch people.

Those are very good choices indeed! My rankings for showa would probably be, Dainichi, Isa, Marudo, Oomo. But I'm sure that any given time any of these breeders could come up with something special.

Maruyama of course! Wish these were in my pond.
