So many redbreast in this creek! Also I picked up two hybrids: a greengill and a green x redbreast. Also I captured some creek chubs but I couldn't entice any of the white suckers to hit.

Not a catch but wanted to give some general knowledge of your new or didn’t know in regards to Bass fishing. I’ve seen a lot of people posting pics of fish wearing gloves if your keeping the fish it’s not so bad but if your releasing them you should know that the gloves take of the slime film on the fish and can cause harm even though it swims away fine it’s a good possibility you’ve shorten it’s life span tremendously. Also if you weren’t sure if your releasing the fish and it happens to swallow the hook don’t bother it just cut your loses and the line it’s survival rate is much higher general the hook rust out within a week and the fish will be fine. Just wanted to give those who maybe are new and didn’t know everyone who’s fishing today catch your PB for the year and have a great week tight lines everyone
