Well went to the Guadalupe River in South Texas for about 3 hours wade fishing and did pretty well. Caught my first smallmouth. I fiannly had caught & largemouths, 4 smallmouths, and this wierd bluegill type fish not sure what it was please tell me if you know.

Holy crap that is a long smallmouth! Nice catches!

I expect one of our fish experts would be more reliable but based on my knowledge, albeit limited,  that blue fish looks like some sort of cichlid.

Looks like a Rio Grand Cichlid.

One of the Small mouths pictured looks to be a Guadalupe bass or at least a hybrid Guadalupe/Small mouth. Good day and nice fish, congrats!

Great Job

Nice bass !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice fish buddy! My friend had a fish tank with oscars and cichlids in it. Those things are aggresive!! Somebody must've let that one go in the river!  ;D

Great post!

Wikipedia says they are actually native to Texas.

Great going on the smallies, awesome fighters, aren't they?

Yea they do have a little bit more kick to them today though i went to same place and caught 2 gars on a rope lure, 4 large mouth one went about 3 3/4 plbs and a this wierd suck type fish. Please tell me if you know what that last fish is but im going to post some more pics of it in other fish catagopry. O and sorry for pics being so big you might have to scroll sideways to see it .

that would be a dinosaur fish.   ;D

I have no clue what that bottom fish is.  Nice catches though.

It is a Plecostamus. Its a very common aquarium fish. Someone released them/it into your river.

As a kid with an aquarium, I kept two of them; they supposedly helped keep the tank clean of algae. They seemed to be more of a goldbricker fish than anything though, just sat there lookin' ugly. ;D  Nice catch in the first pic.

That some fine fish & a beautiful river 

That first bass had some awesome color.  How big was that pleco?

Great post.  Sounds like a great time.
