You are forgiven but as penance need to post three more.

I'll refrain from posting salmon since they are all salmonoids

Most recently, my first small mouth bass on Salt Spring Island:


Big cuda on a 9 weight:


Decent catfish in Africa:


A mess of brim and a pike fish that fed the lodge that night in Africa - I was everybody's pal:


Pike fish from out of the mess o fish:

Don't recall much of a fight. This on the other hand was a pretty good fight on the 8-weight. Technically, it was a snag as you can see the Clouser in the armpit. There are a few turtle species around and I would guess this is the 'Green Turtle':



A day later, I caught this guy. A Ray of some kind. Again on the black Clouser. Not sure it was a Stingray but I wasn't going to find out. I walked it to shore and cut the leader about 4' above the fly.



All 'fish' caught in St. Augustine, Florida. A place called 'The Salt Run' in the State Park. I fished it for four days in a row, two hours each day in the morning, and caught something each day. If anybody finds themselves in northeast Florida, I would highly recommend it.
