Thread: Not a crappie but

it was the first one of these I ever caught out of a river trib. at least on a line/pole. My uncle caught one on a limb line last summer. I thought it was a catfish when it took my slip bobber for a ride under the boat. Almost 25 inches.

That's ugly

Dude that looks like a sea lion mated with a carp. Gross. The only thing I've seen uglier is a blank card or a sucker fish. Nothing quite compares to a fish with acne! Your's is close though

Don't be lippin that one! Haha My neighbor holds the Indiana state record for those suckers. I saw a bigger one caught out of a relatively clear body of water, and to be honest, it had some of the most remarkable colors on its tails and fins. If you cut the head off, it's a very pretty fish.....and I encourage you to cut the head off.

i feel stupid asking this, but what is it lol
