I hope that we could fish the secret creek sometime if I am able to get out that way. That would be for those goldeye, possible shortnose gar, and grass carp. Then I still need to get after koi or two. Absolutely! The Goldeye haven't been coming often or easily... more of a "very infrequent bycatch"...but I believe they are there! The Gar and Grass Carp are usually reliable on fly, as are the Koi. A month on either side of Late August seems to be a good time... Johnsfolly and Daryk Campbell Sr 2
FishnDave Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 @Johnsfolly and @JestersHK...you BOTH gave specific locations to help my my 2020 Longear quest. I didn't mean to overlook @JestersHK ! I appreciated the help, and both locations gave up plenty of fish! Also, @JestersHK allowed me to fish certain semi-private water for bass, which was super-kind! 👍

Maybe we can catch John on a trip back here. FishnDave and Johnsfolly 2

JestersHK Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 Haven't seen him for a bit, but water clarity hasn't been the greatest. Hope to wander over there at some point this week. Johnsfolly and FishnDave 2

Johnsfolly Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 So not to beat a dead horse, but I thought at one point @Ham had asked if we could get a total species count for @FishnDave, Ham and myself for 2021. Here is what I came up with for 2021. 170 total species. American (White) Shad Goldeye River Chub Atlantic Silverside Goldfish Rosyside Dace Atlantic Stingray Grass carp Round goby Atlantic thread Herring (greenies) Grass pickerel Sailor's Choice Grunt Autumn darter Green sunfish Sargent Major Ballyhoo Greenside darter Satinfin Shiner Banded Killifish Hardhead catfish Sauger Banded sculpin Hornyhead Chub Saugeye Bantam Sunfish Houndfish Scup (Porgy) Bermuda Chub Hybrid striped bass Shadow bass Bigeye shiner Inshore Lizardfish Sheepshead Black buffalo Irish Pompano Sheepshead Minnow Black bullhead Knobfin sculpin Shortnose gar Black Crappie Koi Silver Perch Black drum Largemouth bass Silver redhorse Black Sea Bass Lined Topminnow Skilletfish Blackspotted Topminnow Logperch Skipjack herring Blackstripe Topminnow Longear Sunfish Slender Mojarra Bleeding shiner Longnose gar Slippery Dick Blue catfish Mayan Cichlid Smallmouth buffalo Bluegill McCloud rainbow trout Southern Kingfish Bluehead Chub Meanmouth bass Southern redbelly dace Bluespotted sunfish Mud Sunfish Spanish Mackerel Bluntnose Minnow Mummichog Spiny Dogfish Bowfin Naked Goby Spot (Norfolk Spot) Brook silverside Northern hog sucker Spottail Pinfish Brook trout Northern pike Spotted bass Brown bullhead Northern Puffer Spotted gar Brown trout Northern rock bass Spotted Seatrout Buffalo Trunkfish Northern Searobin Spotted Tilapia Cardinal shiner Northern starhead Topminnow Steel color shiner Carmine shiner Northern Studfish Striped Bass Chain pickerel Oscar Striped Blenny Channel catfish Ozark bass Striped Killifish Checkered Puffer Ozark chub Striped Searobin Cocoa Damselfish Ozark Darter Striped shiner Common Carp Ozark minnow Summer Flounder (Fluke) Common Shiner Ozark sculpin Swallowtail Shiner Coppernose Bluegill Peacock Bass Tautog Creek chub Pealip redhorse Telescope shiner Crested Blenny Pigfish Tiger trout Cunner (Bergall) Plains Orangethroat Darter Walleye Dollar Sunfish Plains stoneroller Warmouth Dusky Damselfish Pumpkinseed sunfish Wedgespot shiner Eastern Blacknose Dace Rainbow darter Weed shiner Eastern mosquitofish Rainbow trout Western Mosquitofish Eastern Mudminnow Red Hake White Bass Fallfish Redbreast sunfish White crappie Fantail Darter Redear sunfish White Grunt Flier Redear x bluegill White Perch French Grunt Redfin Pickerel Duskystripe shiner Freshwater drum Redfish White sucker Gafftop sail catfish Redspot chub Whitetail shiner Gizzard shad Redspotted Sunfish Winter Flounder Golden redhorse Redtail Parrotfish Yellow bullhead Golden shiner Reef Croaker Yellow perch Golden topminnow Smallmouth Bass Dave and Ham you'll have to let me know if I missed any. There were only 22 species (in bold) that all three of us caught. It could have been more, but I didn't hold up my end by not catching species like white crappie, golden shiner, brook or brown trout in 2021 🙄. Not all of them were common species, like we all caught hornyhead chubs, bleeding shiners, dollar, bantam and redspotted sunfish. We all caught black bullheads from the same pound and likely the bantams from within 25 feet of each others and on different trips. I know that Dave and I caught the redspotted sunfish on different trips from the same pond. Ham 1
Ham Posted February 17, 2022 Author Posted February 17, 2022 White perch is listed twice. please add Dusky Striped Shiner Holy Crap that’s a lot of different species. I’ll double check my list. Johnsfolly 1 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish

I have added it to the spot with the second white perch. Ham 1
Ham Posted February 17, 2022 Author Posted February 17, 2022 No Worries John. I’m not sure how you managed to pull it all together as it is. I guess you have all three lists and I just have one. I do appreciate it. I know that took some doing and aggravation. Johnsfolly 1 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish
