![]() I first started noticing these guys hanging in the rocks at the base of the ramp back in the late summer and from I can tell, they're growing.
In late summer they were around 1.5 to 2 inches I'd guess, where the big one I saw yesterday was closer in the 3.5 inch range. Perfect forage size that we need for the mid size class browns. Their color appears to be a greyish with light grey verticle bars and one yesterday had alot of red around his (bulging) eyes. Not really sure what's up there. I haven't seen them anywhere else, and I've even wondered in the beginning if Ganesh offerings were drawing them to the ramp.... but they're still there and I haven't seen any rice or food other wise being dumped. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

![]() The first one is Henry, the second one is James, and the third one was Eric. (Not many people get a shot of Eric. He's a bit bashful.)
As for the second post, it looks like Ethel needs to put on a few pounds. She always has been one to try to wear her high school prom dress to her class reunion. ![]() Hope you can get out and hook a few more during the holiday weekend! ![]()

![]() Though I'm not sure of their ID, don't forget to account for some warm water species that make a home in the Hooch. I've caught some bass out of the Hooch Tailwater and I know others have caught catfish, it wouldn't surprise me if some of those baitfish from various creeks made a home in there too.

![]() The first almost looks like a baby bass. Could be some smaller maturing panfish.
I've seen them as well and I can't make a solid ID.

![]() If you can see it you can catch it. It just may take some time and hard work guys.
Can't wait to see what your PICS produce.

![]() I would guess sunfish. Any tiny fly should help out with the verification.

![]() I know on a lot of the reservoirs I've fished it seems to always be warmouth and/or green sunfish around the boat ramps hiding in the rocks. They're pretty aggressive so if you pull anything they think is edible through it's a good chance they'll try to eat it and you'll get to ID it if it's those little guys.

Green sunfish love the docks, also good to know swamp angel is on a forest name basis. Lol That brown is straight anorexic. Dang girl! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
