Not a lot of fish there.
But, I hope they fight like bass.

Hmmm, appears to be a hybrid of the Smallmouth Bass & Largemouth Bass. The PATTERN is similar to Smallmouth, the COLORING is similar to Largemouth.

No. These two bass are not hiding in plain sight.
They are hiding behind the four sousa’s and 76 trombones.

We don’t have those around here or I would have never caught them.

“These evolutionarily distinct lineages are important to name,” said Bud Freeman. “In recognizing these species, we recognize how quickly they are becoming lost as extrinsic barriers are breached by human activities.”

Bet they use these two bass as a reason to further restrict fishing, or issue fines. Will they be on the endangered list soon?

Bass? What? They found a newer version of the Hofner Bass? Or maybe a cool, new 6-stringed Fender Bassman?

Wait. What?!?!?!

Oh.. a FISH?!?!?

Nevermind!

To think I caught both of these and let them go.

Really. Too big a heart I guess.

Reminds me of the time...
