There is a online site, I used to have it book marked but the thing I hate most about comp. is if you have a problem and unless you literally wrote down the address it is lost, where dudes went out with very, very light weight fish gear and fish for little fish.
I mean little; a 4 ounce fish would be a monster.It has been years since I saw it, but they would at time catch a , comparatively speaking, large version of a minnow bait type fish and remark that they get bigger than the scientific fish journals, online or print, say they do.
I read a site yesterday Catfish World I think, where gents for whom Icthyology was a full time hobby, that were speaking about Flathead Bullheads down South.They were saying about how the imported Flathead Catfish had decimated bullhead populations and the people who introduced them had shite for brains.
They remarked that online , max size for them was about ten inches but one fellow had a picture of one close to two feet long.He said that when he was young, that in a lake in his area it was not rare to catch then in the 2 to 5 pound range but now with the Flathead Catfish, the big ones were rare and catching any was becoming more like work.
I regret to this day that when I returned to college, I did not stick with getting a degree in Icthyology.
Stupidity has just rewards and I ended up getting a degree simply because I wanted one.
