Female WC Umbee w/ Eggs

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
lol I did not say his were crap you might want to read as well. Plus I have not seen the male anyhow. I said they other pics I had seen to date were crap including the one on Rapps site. Volcom knows I was not trying to poke a hit at his fish we are friends:ROFL: I just was not too impressed with what I have seen so far of these wild caught's and was the reason I wanted to see a few more pics because maybe they were just all not great pic. As far as jealous hahha get real. Before asinine assumptions are made maybe realize who your are talking to lol. Go post search some more since you have a personal issue and seem to be doing so. I have plenty of posts for you to look at bud. I can get my hands on whatever I what fish wise. Example to prove it is the fact that I am one of 3 in the U.S. who has Ornatum:grinno: I have had Umbee many times, my buddy imported wild's almost a year before Rapps just did, and those are just on a whole other playing field than these. This is just an observation of mine. I call it like I see it. However Volcom, I like the color of your female they are very pretty when stimulated by a males presents! I know taking pics of Umbee's is actually one of the more difficult fish to get capture well. It's a real pain most of the time unless you have a wicked camera like GMFISHNUT:D I just really wanted to see the face of your male (freckles) bro is what I wanted to check out, but I am sure one of these days you will be able to snap a decent one no hurry:)
Oh and on another note the next time you take a trip up here you have to come by (bring a bucket with you) ;):D

they look good man. love their coloring. good luck with them.

pretty ***inine comments from some (that obviously dont read your responses saying its hard to get a pic of the male) that seem jealous that they dont have them and dont understand some people arent born photographers...especially to judge a 3-4 inch fish saying it looks like crap and thinking they know what a wild caught fish looks like.:ROFL:

all kinds on mfk I guess.

Thanks for your comments capefear. I can understand reading the comments from bastardfish that it did sound rude...I guess he speaks his mind and it wasn't a surprise to me to read that from him haha:ROFL:But yea thanks for the comments again.

You know I'm going to take you on that offer bro! I'll for sure bring a bucket and then some if I'm ever up in the OC.

Yea I have to admit the female as of now is showing some nice colors that I expected as she's already at the 7" mark. She can only grow a few more inches from here I believe to her max size. So I'm thinking there will be no real drastic change in color for her other than her growing in size.

As for the male, it's no where near the colors I expect from a male at similar sizes. I think thats one reason why it was a little harder for Rapps to sex them but he did do a good job at sending at least 1 male and 1 female to me. I'm really hoping that they do eventually color up as nice as the other wild caughts I see like your buddy Chris. I tried taking more pics but from my phone....again not the greatest. There's defintely some freckling there but again we'll see how he turns out when he grows.
