Creek fishing in the heat

Some days I am more likely to hook up if it was a log and not a fish.

I had to look up bala shark. I always called them tricolored sharks. Pretty likely that it was a carp or some type of sucker. As with Bigfoot, we need a body or at least a photo of the fish.

Preferably not your own. Be careful, he's out there.

I realize that this post is 8 months old. But, felt compelled to respond. I can't identify the first pic. But, the fish in the 2nd. pic, is a very good example of a smallie/spotted bass cross. People are calling them mean mouth bass. Either way, it is definitely a hybrid. Has the color and look of a smallie. With the distinct lateral line and rows of spots of a Kentucky. Pretty fish. I've caught many but, none over 12". Probably out there, just never caught one.
