I went out to Dyers Creek this morning and did some fishing from shore (man oh man, that area looks great, I really need to get me a boat). I did pretty good from shore though; caught largemouth bass, bream and crappie (although the bream and crappie were on the small side) and also this little fellow.

But I have no idea what kind of fish that is...looks like it's a member of the bass family?

Also, note to self: After fishing gear gets packed up, and shipped from Korea to here, it's probably a really good idea to respool those reels. (I had a good bass on this morning, at least 4 pounds, and it snapped my line right at shore :mad:).

Thanks, Travis C. I may have to print it out and carry it with me ;)

I was pleasantly surprised at the abundance and variety of fish out at the Dyers Creek Recreation Area and hope to get back out there again real soon. And it's good to see that the bass here, just like the bass in Korea, love black 4" Senkos.
