I was trying to explain what kind of fish I had in my pond to some of the Mexican guys that do odd jobs around my property and was at a loss. I know that bagre=catfish, and mojarra=generic panfish of almost any kind(or so it seems to me,apparently misused in the same way we use "perch" in english). I found perca and pez sol de orejas azules as bluegill translations.After googling for LMB translations I came up with el huro, and la lobina negra. But knowing spanish there is quite likely a mexican name for LMB not listed in most dictionaries. It seems there has to be a name given the mexican LMB fishing tourism that is so well known.

Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

I sure hope I'm right about this, as I wouldn't want to ever give wrong advice to anyone. I have buried the hatchet. \_~ <*((((((((((((((((<

Let me know if you need anything else translated. $;\)$ Carl Spackler: "This place got a pool?" Ty Webb: "Pool and a pond. Pond would be good for you..."
