I just got done fishing the area that Cody and Cecil and Nedoc and I seined and caught a very big bluegill. I didn't have my digital camera, so I took some regular photos. The fish was just under 11 inches, and about 3.5 inches thick. The regular photos were taken with an underwater camera, so I put him in a tank with some quarters to see if I could get a decent shot. I'll have to take it in for developing tomorrow. With my luck the film was probably bad from sitting around for two years.

I also noticed a big area without weeds, and I wondered what the heck that was all about, so I walked right into it with my waders and right there in front of me were about seven nesting male redears. I got straight out of there! Nice to know where they're at, so I can watch my back.

Holding a redear sunfish is like running with scissors.
