Re: More Fish Tagging!!!

Quick update 05/23/2012

-Went out today with some rain but still caught many gizzard shad over 30cm (about 1ft and tagged)
-Caught even more in the 6in range. (tagged)
-We had our usual mix of sunnies, bass, and some crayfish as well (not tagged)

All fish were released healthy and swam away no problem!!! We also have had 2 shad move through the fish ladder so far. We will know if more have moved through on Thursday when we check the ladder computer.

All times are GMT -4. The time now is 10:38 AM.
