That's really great. What sort of variety?

My old man's in Bundy, I wonder if he's catching fish in his backyard.

Not really sure the water source is downhill about 2-300 meters freshwater.

My question was more about how many varieties he's catching.

Jabez, you should go up there, its a free smorgasboard, and will save you dumpster diving for dinner scraps for a few days.

I think its a Spangled Perch. The big ones are only just big enough to eat. An interesting aggressive species and are nice in a native aquarium.

Ouch! Damn mate I’ve really done something to get under your skin. Starting to wonder if I must have fucked your girlfriend or something. Not my fault if your little princess smiles at me first fella!

I guess why not "harvest" some beauties for the pot! Hope you have a good freezer, you'd be set for a while after a food filleting session!

Do you have the means to return some of them to the water source once the floods stop?

Yeah they are all going back but they were swimming uphill to certain death so catch and re-release into my dam if they swam downhillthey would be in a creek and could swim out to a river.

maybe a juvenile silver bass but definitely not a spangled perch on my uncles property there are fish in his

dam and no one ever introduced fish into it but he thinks they came with the rain

Nice fish and nice colour nails

I was going to suggest to do a clear, glossy undercoat first next time, as well as a top coat to help the colour 'pop' a little more.
