Fish Collecting

[Moontanman]

I went out today by myself to do a little collecting, first time out since my last surgery.

 

My target species was Redfin Pickerel, but the prime collecting site is on private property and had a no trespassing sign up and the owner wasn't home to ask his permission so I didn't get to collect there. He had told me several years ago I was welcome to collect any time but now there is a fence and that was several years ago and I'm not sure the same guy lives there.

 

No pickerels were caught. I did get the following species.

 

Swamp Darter 1

Pirate perch     1

Blue spotted sunfish 3

Several gambusia with one black spotted male...

 

Wait for it! 

 

Three tiny Sirens! I thought they were eels at first but when I put on my glasses it was obvious they were Sirens! First really small Sirens I have ever caught. They were about 3" long...

 

I also caught two salamanders of unknown species

several large turtles. stink pots and yellow sliders.

 

I very large and unhappy red bellied snake, he almost filled up the net! 

 

I also observed two large alligators sunning them selves, I figured they were better left alone, they were about 8' long.

 

More surgery in a few weeks so I intend to get out again soon, have to have redfin pickerels before you can breed them!

 

I did try my hand at micro fishing but only a few large green sunfish were caught.

 

A watched a fisherman near me in Greenfield Lake spillway catch a large mouth bass, he released him after a picture was taken.

You've been banned dude, I am not a moderator, I do have the ear of a couple of moderators but your behavior is what got you banned, you said some nasty things my friend. Insults do not go down well in science forums, I would like to know why you think you should be allowed back? Behave and this forum will be good to you.. I doubt the other one will let you back in just on my say so..
