The Push for 100 Species in 2021

Livie #92 L Koi out in Missouri. She and Sue closed the deal on some koi and goldfish 😁. All the while a fretful father patiently waited out in Maryland for an update.

Thanks @FishnDave

They did it!  Hooray!  Glad they made it!  When is it your turn, @Johnsfolly?

That one has some cool yellow on it, and some larger fins!

I would love my chance to be soon but it may be some time from now. Likely to catch one out here first.

89) Steelcolored Shiner ;  two pictures of the same fish. I've had a lot more frustration than success on my recent trips and honestly have not been up for much fishing since Luna got injured.

This was the target species for the day, but I had hoped to add a new darter as well. I had my chances at a new darter. Lots and lots of fish that I presented the right size baits right at their little tiny nose. They were not having it. I could see them feeding on stuff, but what they were eating was too small for me to see. 
it was my intention to be over 90 species and I was hoping to be at 95 species before I headed north, but I am where I am.

Watched the latest episode of Ike's World or whatever the name is, anyway Ike went fishing in a reservoir in NJ by the name of Merrils Creek and they caught a lake trout.  Looks to be easily within JF's driving range.  Dunno if you've got a lake trout yet on your species quest.  @Johnsfolly

90) Fallfish : not the size I was hoping for, but a Fallfish none the less.

91) Satinfin Shiner 

This one wasn't even on my possible targets. Happy to catch him for sure though. Another Lifer. Cyprinella to boot.

I don't but have been looking at Round valley lake for possible late fall Lakers. Will have to look into Merrils creek.

92) Redbreast Sunfish

my first one was tiny and then a little bigger and then larger and larger still. I was stoked about the first one, but I was shaking them off trying for a pumpkinseed right before the morning session ended.

such is the Push for 100
