went fishin today

[midnight]

caught this monster turtle on a bread ball.
he looked bigger in person.pic was taken about 10' above me.
if that one piece of grass wasn't there you could have see him better.
he was pissed.lucky i had braided line.
i tried hard to get him on land to get a pic but that is as far as i could get him out.
and a pic of a bullhead,had a bigger one but when i tried to lift him up 6' above the water he got off.
the bull looks like he has a big smile,i think its the bread.
im going back in the next few days.
theres,gars,cats,bluegill,tilapia,cichlids,i saw a biig bowfin,and all the other norms in this little creek. lol
this is where i net for minnows.still no baby bowfin or gar.

Nice! I can't wait to get back to FL and start fishin!

What part of FL are you in? Close to Lakeland at all? I have been looking for someone to drop a line in with for awhile now.

Nice bullhead!

ya he was really pissed,was hissing at me.
um ya hook,well i was going to try to get it with pliers but my dad said i would be crazy to even try, "there necks are like a foot long".so i had to cut it.
peta dont kill me.

the biggest gar ive ever seen is in there.
has to be 3 or 4 feet long and around 6"-8" thick."side to side not round.

went fishin in my spot again today.
also caught a walking cat but no pic of him.
might go again tomorrow,trying to get a bowfin or gar.
dont know if we have bowfin in my county tho,anyone know how i can find out?

 

[MrRngr94]

You caught a walking cat? What did you do with it? Those things are illegal in FL. I would've kept it or killed it. How big was it?

 

[fishcatch22]

woah...a walking cat? those things are really invasive. I would have kept it and eaten it with fried potatoes.
