More fish pictures

Due to popular request, I’m going to post more pictures from fishing.

I went out fishing with a buddy of mine at McKinney Falls park, which has a creek running through it. Here he is:

It’s impressive that we could actually catch fish on a body of water this small. Of course the fish themselves were also very small. Here’s a baby largemouth bass that bit on a worm.



He’s pretty frisky. I imagine that if I caught larger bass it would be much more exciting. I think I need to fish in larger bodies of water and use larger bait.

Here are some sunfish I caught, a combination of redbreast and longear I believe, while fishing on a secret spot on Lady Bird Lake.

The lake record for sunfish is 10-inches, so 9.25-inches ain’t bad at all.

They love meal worms. Most of these fish bit within seconds of the hook hitting the water.

A hawk landed just above my head while I was fishing. I looked around for my camera, but couldn’t find it before the hawk flew off. And that’s when I noticed that my bobber had disappeared, dunked by another chunky sunny.

Not bad considering that I was fishing in the middle of downtown Austin.
