dtrs5kprs Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I referenced this guy last week. Why is he the dumbest? Well, he let me catch him once on a Ned, then on a rogue. Today I caught him again, on a different color Ned. Same fish. Note the sore on his gill flap. This fish has not moved from the same Bank/pile in two weeks. Crazy. BTW, the smart and healthy ones were pretty dumb today too. I am about sick of braid though. Champ188, Mitch f, huntest and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abkeenan Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Take a hint Dave. He wants to go home with you to Kansas. Reconfigure your hoard of tackle and make some space for a 100 gallon tank for your new friend. You already think like a fish so communication should come naturally. Probably have him rolling over and playing fetch with a hookless ned before you know it. 176champion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrs5kprs Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 I would purely love a pet brown fish. I would name him "bait tester". Muddy Water and akaslyguy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ham Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 How many times did you fish that area and NOT catch him? dtrs5kprs 1 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtrs5kprs Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 What do you think...lamprey type critter? We had a lot of fish last year with round marks about that size. Remember Ham sent me a pic of one still attached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ham Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I looks about the right size and shape for a lamprey wound, but it isn't the right time of year really. I usually see a lot more of them attached late summer/early fall (if memory serves). I wonder how many other fish you have caught multiple times, but they don't have any marks to help you to remember them by. I bet it is more than a couple. Catch and release works and we should all be glad that you don't like to eat smallies. I remember saying that you don't like to eat fish at all. Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future.

Sprint21fter Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 This year has been the most fish that I have caught where someone else has caught them, noting a cull pin hole in the bottom lip or a tear out of a mouth from someone hooking it on a different outing. C@R is nothing but a positive. If you notice when alot of boats/tournaments have been happening the fishing gets tough, that is due to the fish feeling the pressure or adapting and moving around.
