I'll start a new thread since that other one got a little hijacked and off track. Better make sure that I know my species a little better. But then since I release every fish I catch (non-eater) it doesn't really matter if I am an expert!
Police today 3-8pm:
Brother: 11 into the boat
Me: 9 into the boat
Dad: 6 into the boat
Fish: around 10 or so escapes from aerial tactics
of the total 26 boated, 3 were around 10 inches, one was 14, then all the rest but the biggest (mine at 18.5) were 15 inches. Incredible how so many of the fish were the exact same size. that or we kept catching the one "special" fish in the lake.
this is the 18.5 winner, junky scale said 3 pds, don't know how accurate it is but I'm sure someone out there can tell me the actual weight from looking at it!
probably the last big trip of the year and what a way to finish off a great year. Long live global warming! NO ICE!
