Today I met JD7.62 in Indianapolis. He met me at my brother in laws house (JD_man) to do some fish buying/trading/selling.
I traded my red tail payara for an 8" Indo and bought his 9-10" Motoro.
JD_Man bought 5 great looking little indos off of the other JD......all of those doing great as well.

We decided to go to a Repairs house (to give him the green terror that he bought off of JD7.62). We checked out Repairs stuff, talked fish and moved on to the LFS where we found a stunner.

JD7.26 left Indiana with not only a Payara, but an African Tiger Fish as well. A 12" long ATF. I could not believe that Indiana had one in a fish store, let alone one with a $90 price tag. Here is a few shots. more will follow! (sorry, bad pix, not much time)

That pic was at the LFS. We were looking for cops because he knew he stole it lol.
 
Damn.. sounds like a good day..
 
As you wish Dixon.......here is the dat. He's 8-9"

I'll show the ray a bit later. He's still acclimating.

sweet pickups!
 
very good day..very good fish:)
 
Man that was a long/nervous drive back! The dat looks great Levi!

The fish made it fine during the ride but acclimation was a little rough. I opened the cooler and before I even knew what happened I had a 12" ATF flooping around on my baby's play mat!! I quickly scooped him up and threw him in the tnank. He was rather pissed at first, but now has settled down nicely. Unfortunatly since I had to throw him in there so fast I didnt have time to take out the baby Indos so now Im just sitting and watching as long as I can to give the ATF and payara some time to settle in before I piss them both off again chasing down the dats.
