How exactly do fish manage to appear in literally every body of water?

I think it's magic, the ordinary, every day sort of magic which makes it worth exploring that which is unexplained.

 When we were there in the wedding day I had time to kill and had a spinning setup with me and decided what the heck.

 

The real story here is that you had time to fish on your wedding day AND that you brought fishing gear with you to the wedding venue?

I fished the morning of my first weeding. It was good for the nerves.

I have heard the bird theory, but how does that work? They catch a fish and accidentally drop it in another nearby body of water? I don’t see that happening often. The roe attach to their feet? Still leaves the question of how they get fertilized, unless they already are.  Are other animals like turtles, waterfowl and beavers the couriers of these fertilized eggs? Even then that seems unlikely to populate literally every freshwater stream, pond and ditch on earth. How does it happen?

That's a really question about the eggs.  Ive never heard anyone ask that and I wish I had thought of it lol.  I think the eggs are already fertilized before they come into contact with the bird.  Otherwise I don't see how they could hatch.

There is a tiny pond, about half the size of an Olympic sized swimming pool.  Since I started fishing it about 10 years ago there only bass, catfish and a few kinds of sunnys.  2 years ago I started catching small pickerel about 6-8".  In just 2 years they went from rare to difficult to avoid.

While the wife was at the salon getting her hair done, we had everything already set up so I excused myself and wet a line haha.

So does this mean I should toss some baits in a couple man-made ponds less than an acre in size scooped out during construction of a highway overpass about 2 years ago?

No, not unless they were stocked, which is unlikely.

Do it! 

Where do fish come from? Is that the question? Well, there are two fish, okay. One is a boy and the other a girl... .and.... oh never mind.

How exactly is a rainbow made? How exactly does a sun set? How exactly does a posi-trac rear-end on a Plymouth work?
