Fun little read. Thanks for the entertainment. I have been guilty of targeting some little critters just to see if I could catch them, it is all fun.
I worked on a golf course when I was in high school and college, and we had a small pond (water hazard) that dried up every summer. I would occasionly find little fish in it when there was water in it, somehow they would just appear. |

I've heard that fish eggs often get stuck to the legs of wading birds and that can spread fish around. It's funny how when I am at a little creek with with my kids I get as intense about catching little hornyheads and suckers as if they were trophy bass.

That's interesting, about the bird. Explains a lot.
I followed a little creek from the Broad once, followed it as far as I could up a hillside without being Br'er Rabbit. Found several pools with little fish. Judging by the obstructions on the way up, I couldn't conceive how these fish could make their way up that stream. Don't know about the stream's origins. Can't imagine it being anything but a spring. |
