MCTFisher9120 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) So as part of my summer project I need to complete a fish collection both with specimens and 3 photographed fish. I'm 99% sure I caught 3 white suckers today at a local creek but I have a question for a smaller fish I caught that looked like a spawning common shiner but it's a toss up...not very sure on it. My mom came out with me today and took some neat action shots and photo's haha. It was a first day back home after a year at fleming. Here is the fish I'm not 100% sure about. Caught it(as well as the others) on corn this morning. Here is a picture of the fish. Sucker time...enjoy My favorite haha The big 18"r Not to sure why but this fish was bleeding a but from the anal...didn't look to healthy. Thanks for viewing, MTBF Also, I got the coordinates from google maps but I need to include a photocopied UTM map of each location in this project...any idea where I can find something online that's free...google is my enemy lol Edited April 24, 2010 by MikeTheBassFisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was using a #6 circle hook(small) with some split shot and corn.. usually 1 piece on the hook. Would pitch it out to the school and wait for the little guys to suck it in haha...good fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
