Flyfished a bit.Here’s some of the fishies caught:(accidentally foul-hooked a unseen Silver Carp while presenting a fly to a visible one):

29.5" Shortnose Gar:

That’s quite an assortment of fishes, Dave. Thank you for sharing. Jim

Nice set of fish.

Looks like you scored this weekend. Nice variety. Dennis

Thanks, Fellas!I caught almost everything I was hoping for, and even more. Saw plenty of bowfin, but didn’t manage to catch any. Had a nice Longnose Gar strike a surface fly, but I didn’t manage to hook it.There were more fish… I also caught Bluegills, Largemouth Bass, Green Sunfish, a Crappie…Saw a deer, snuck up on several Great Blue Herons, hooked a Snapping Turtle in the foot, saw 3 kinds of watersnakes (Diamond-backed, Plain-Bellied, and Northern Watersnake), and a Kingfisher almost landed on my fly rod! Got pictures of all that, except for the Kingfisher.

Wow! You’re checking off your bucket list every time you go out. Nice work!
