September 2, 2023

Tough day... hot... overheated.  Fished for 3 hours before I caught my first fish of the day. Fished for 5 hours before catching the first target species of the day (bowfin).

Only caught 8 fish total, 5 species.  These were: Grass Carp, Common Carp, Bigmouth  Buffalo (79th species on fly for 2023), Eyetail Bowfin (4), and a Largemouth Bass.






Accidentally caught yet another Snapping Turtle.  Not the one below...the one below was sitting on top of a larger one that you can't see.
Bigmouth Buffalo mouthing at the surface:

Red Velvet Ant, a.k.a. "Cow Killer" due to its very painful bite/sting.  Actually a wasp species, and the female (here) is wingless.  Never stopped moving, so the pictures are blurry.
