Catfish!

I got tired of being stuck in my apartment and braved fishing in the rain after dinner. I went to a creek in one of the city parks to continue my quest to document as many species in Gregg County as I can. There are allegedly 76 species, but many of them haven't been documented in decades. I know there are some rare ones I'm not going to find, like the American Eel, but I want to document which ones are still here.

I had less than an hour of fishing time today, but I got a new species, the Yellow Bullhead; I have now found both native bullheads. This was in a creek the locals say has no fish in it. ;p I think they mean there are no fish big enough to eat, which is true because the creek is small.

I really want to find some that are east Texas exclusives, like the Sabine Shiner. It's not supposed to rain tomorrow, so the quest will continue!
