yesterday i saw a very strange thing. it was a fish ?? sucking some floating debris off the surface. the mouth was about an inch circle fleshy thing, couldn't see the rest but think it extended about a foot back a little ways under the water. any ideas as to what it was?
Could have been a lot of things. There is a fish called a Sacramento Sucker (and no it's not a politician)...
Any idea what type of fish are in the pond?
Oh and pardon my manners, Welcome to Pond Boss! There are a few of us here from California! DIED and I are in El Dorado county.
I didn't think there were, but are there carp West of the Rockies? What color was the mouth and/or fish?
There sure are Esshup, go on to youtube.com and type in Carp fishing in California. Bow fishing for carp in the Sacramento Delta is popular.
Lot's of interesting fish native to the West Coast that maybe one day I'll get to see in person...
