So, I've been doing a lot of collecting lately and I've been trying to find warmouths. I live in Southern Illinois and I know they are pretty common around here but I can't find any. What kind of habitat should I be looking for to find them?
Wanna send me like 2? LolI catch them from 8-12" in our marina in presque isle bay in Lake Erie. They like heavily vegetated, still, warm, "swampy" water.
Wish I could keep them myself, PFBC lists them as endangered so I can't keep any, same with Longear Sunfish.Wanna send me like 2? Lol
Yeah, I saw a few of the NANFA guys pointed out some good specific spots as well. Good luck finding some fish!Thanks for the info guys. Between here and the NANFA forum shallow, heavily vegetated, and swampy seem to be the key words I'm looking for.
