Ah ok!
It's crazy to me what slight difference can mean a different species!
If it were to up to me, they'd all be called "fish".  :P

Glad you had a nice vacation Jeremy and a couple new species to boot!
That last one looks exactly like the white croaker my kids would catch a ton of in Ventura harbor.

Dang Tom, that sounds fun anyway!  Hope things were calmer when you got home.

I was fishing a small pond once and catching a lot of little 10" cats.  Tossed one back and as soon as it hit the water a huge cat surfaced and chomped on it!  I immediately dropped a worm right next to the back and within seconds my spool was being emptied.  Held on and tried to tighten the drag a bit, but I was young and overly anxious and it broke me off, what a rush though, haha!

Those sound great, can't wait to see the reports!

I'm hoping to get on some pike this year and maybe some north Idaho channel cats.
My biggest goal is just to fish more.  Most of last year I didn't fish because I was focused on helping the kids fish and catch stuff.

I bet that was cool, Chad, hearing those wolves!

I guess it got to -59F somewhere in Northern Idaho. Glad that wasn't you. I assume you're now experiencing the heat wave we're getting. Should be +50F tomorrow!

Mike,
It was such an awesome sound!  I decided to get back in my truck until it was a little lighter out so I could see better, haha!

We only got down to -14, but wow, that was cold enough!  High 40's and rain today make for quite a mess with all the snow.

Haven't been fishing at all in the last few months since I was focused on hunting.
Got skunked this season on elk and deer, but I'm learning a lot and was able to at least see some animals, so that's encouraging.  I'm learning new areas and tracking skills.  Got out of my rig in the dark one morning to the serenade of wolves not far off.  What an awesome sound! 



Lately it's just been craziness of preppping for the holidays and keeping up with the weather.  Lots of snow this winter.







Currently 16* and dumping snow.  It's supposed to be -10* for the low tomorrow.  Still loving it!
