Message:
my dad and I decided to hit the river today, we launched from the thompsonville launch just north of the enfield dam. we started off in a large cove on the right side up from the launch. Water temp got warmer the farther we went in. it topped off at 65 in the back and in the river it was around 60. I ended up catching the first fish of the day which was my only fish of the day it was a large mouth about 2 lbs but it looked sick not sure what was wrong with it see pic's below. then a little while later my dad got a pretty good hit but wasent sure what it was, he thought it was a pike the way it was fighting. he finally got it close enough to the boat to net it and it ended up being a bowfin. the first one either of us have ever seen in person. we where both using 4" senkos. my dad ended up catching a small large mouth and a decent small mouth before we left.

Actually there's really nothing wrong with that bass. I've seen it several times. I forget what it's called or what the cause is of it, but it's no danger to the fish. Cool looking bowfin too. Nice report, sounds like a good day!
