San Antonio Riverwalk 8/14/23

[Devan S.]

I had a couple hours to burn between landing in San Antonio and driving to the border. Burn I did....car said it was 106.  

Rio Cichlids-my first fish was the brute and I was about 8ft above him on a vertical wall along the river. Had to pull him about 100 yards to find a spot I could drop down onto a inlet pipe to net him. They are not as aggressive in this spot like I thought they would be although they are plentiful.

I might have caught 10 total. A bunch of bluegill and the river has lots of fish in it. The Rio's stick out like a sore thumb.

You can see some of the stuff I was fishing. I had hoped to find some red breast and I caught a bunch of sunfish but nothing that I was just positive it was a red breast. I saw several tilapia and at one time think I had a really nice one hooked but he came off in the weeds. 

I went down river to another park area. No shade but I quickly got to work. I caught 2 of these.

I'm not an expert and I really want them to be Guadalupe bass but I'm not sure.

Wow, I didn't see anyone fishing it when we were there. Family trip,  and I usually don't even try to fish then.  Cool looking fish.
