    Be careful with those little fellas @Sean if you plan to release them. They will pick up all sorts of problems if you leave them out of the water, especially letting them sit on the bank. Their mucous cover is easily lost and will lead to infection and probable death quite quickly. Buy a cheap net (preferably not the ones with knotted mesh) keep them wet for as long as you can, keep handling to and absolute minimum and release them quick smart.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    It has 2 alcoholic dairy farmers who stand there fishing all day....it's a given that during a 15hr drinking/fishing session at least one of them catches a Fish.
