Billy

Creek fishing with a 7' fiberglass 3 weight. I also caught a smallmouth bass.

This stocker is a holdover from the winter. He doesn't look too good, and this Ohio creek has probably been too warm and muddy for him all summer.

He was a little too big for my net and ended up on the ground. As a rule, I don't pause to photograph fish that have had a rough landing, but things didn't go wrong here until the phone was already in my hand.

@parslii woah wait what the hell so did you keep it or nah? looks like a good dinner 😭 i would eat

@tippybottom I am fishing for sport, and I practice catch and release. I will from time to time eat a trout out of a high mountain stream, but I don't know much about the water quality here.
