      Are any of these ladies show worthy??

      Never showed any of my koi, and honestly don't have any near intentions of such. Furthermore, never attended a show, just wanted to know if I'm harboring any hidden gems lol. Please lmk honest thoughts on these ladies (sorry for low quality pics)

      Im not a judge but i love showa. I think yours is nice. Has good strong sumi and shiro. Good separation of colors. I would just say the sumi on the head needs to fill in some more so that its solid. And i wish it didn't have those 2 random hi dots on the left side. If that was just shiro it would have more of a checker board pattern. Other than that its a nice showa.. Im not versed enough on your other 2 to comment.

      There is nothing like entering fish in a Koi Show to compare your Koi with other show quality Koi.

      All three have excellent bodies and patterns. The first koi has a big body and is very nice for show and especially the Kohaku too.
