Not Sure But

Featured Replies

I was fishing the other day and by the bank in some weeds something stirred them up. I looked deeper and it was a school of 10-15 fish. I still can't figure out what they are. Crappie, bream, catfish are in the lake. They stayed in the school around the weeds. I threw a white rooster tail, caught one and lost it. Fought like it was the biggest thing in the lake. From the look of what I could see, it was kinda brownish on the top of it. It was def. bigger than a bluegill and kind of longer. Wasn't a bass. They were all the same size. Any idea? I'm in georgia and I still don't know all the gamefish that are here. The air temps have been in the upper 90s and the water im sure is a little warm also. If that helps.

Maybe white bass? They tend to school up and fight like crazy.

Maybe carp?

sounds like carp to me

Yeah, possibly a carp. Possibly foul hooked-which would explain why it pulled so hard.

my guess is carp, was it a lake or pond? if it was carp you probably would hear and see them popping on top pretty regularly

brownish on the top? My guess'd be a channel catfish

Carp probably , never have seen a brownish channel cat.
