caught this a month or so ago and COs said it is an eel but i believe it is a lamprey. it didnt live very long in the fish bowl. anyone else found these? this one came from Big Raccoon Creek
I say snakehead. People keep them as pets and let them go when they get bigger, which is bad. Whatever it maybe, I wouldn't want to swim in water that has those!!!
FYI, its not flowing over the dam. It has an emergency spillway that water flows through before it could ever reach the top of the dam. The spillway flows back into the tailwater preventing a breach on the dam.
just got it a few weeks ago. hope to take it down a creek soon. just need some warmer days and warmer waters. never had one before but the guy i bought it off of bought it to catch pike in. bet that would pull you all over the place
just a little word of advice from experience, you might want to make sure the soil isnt acidic and maybe trim some tree tops to get some sunlight to it. looks like a good spot for a skidish buck to eat and still feel comfortable.
Bama, the water yesterday at the strip pit i was fishing was 48 degrees. That was before the cold front and not sure what other water temps are. i took my thermometer from my house out. not sure how accurate it was but thats an rough number for you.
