Meet “Floyd”

Meet “Floyd”

First caught on 6/27/2012 as part of the Mark & Recapture Study, we caught Floyd again on 10/22/2012.  Floyd was a mere 197mm (7.8″) in June – he’s grown two inches in the past four months.  Wow!

Meet “Eeyore”

Meet “Eeyore”

Meet “Chicago”

Meet “Chicago”

“Holy Chicago!” isn’t quite the exclamation I let loose when I hooked this one, but it’s close enough for government work.  While “Chicago” could probably do with putting on a pound or two, she’s the longest fish we’ve seen in three years of fishing.
