Trophy bluegill! |
We were fishing with Dave from SCOF on Lake James for the afternoon (well, I was fishing; Becky read & took in the sun, and Dave rowed me around...which I appreciated). We were targeting some carp, largemouth and bluegill, which are referred to as bream 'round those parts.
It was a great afternoon to be on the water...and I caught a bluegill...or bream...a sunfish of some manner...
The night we returned home, I slipped out for a couple hours on the Nashwaak River with my new Chupacabra and caught a few yellow perch & creek chub.
Both the bluegill and yellow perch were updated on the Species Journal earlier today.
The creek chubs still remain an unofficial listing because I can't seem to get a picture of them; it was too dark for the camera phone when I caught my potential IGFA-record creek chub last week.
Species Journal Stats (number of fish species caught):
- August, 2009: 1
- August, 2010: 1
- August, 2011: 6
- August, 2012: 15
Note: Two fish (Northern Pike & Mahi-Mahi) have an asterisk due to being caught on conventional tackle. They are included in the totals above. Two fish (Striped Bass & Eastern Creek Chub) remain unofficial catches due to not having photographs and are not included in totals above.
