Thread: Fish of the Day

Most of my catches locally are small , with an occasional decent one .
Like this morning, I only caught five fish , three small gills , a small bass , and one shellcracker that put a nice bend in my St Croix Avid Panfish UL rod .
Rather posting pics of little ones, ( unless they’re exceptionally pretty) I’m going to highlight the “ Fish of the Day” .
When the sunlight hits him just right , it seems to glow .
So here’s today’s candidate , the shellcracker . Caught on a 1/64 jighead with a 1” bluegill color curlytail with its tail highlighted chartreuse with my Zoom marker pen .
