In my opinion, largemouth bass are probably the least interesting freshwater fish to catch. They don't even fight that hard

Question Would this catch trout?

Put 3 super small beads on a small bait holder hook and glued it in place so it’s super small, do you think the hook gap would hook a trout?

Caught in Leesburg, VA. I don't think it's a regular bluegill, I was thinking either a pumpkinseed or a greengill hybrid? This pond is filled with green sunfish so it's not out of the question​

Recovered some frogs when I cleaned out the window wells last week. Used them to hook multiple bass yesterday (not legal here in October) and kept this fat cat. I’d guess 5-6lbs, put up a respectable fight.

I was fishing a little trout stream with some micro gear. Caught these two minnows and have never seen anything like these in my area. I couldn't get pics of their tails because they wouldn't hold still long enough. I feel like they're some kind of shiners but not totally sure.

Southwestern VA, US

Is there a way to remove the knobs from the oem handle of the Daiwa Luna 300? I’m making a longer custom handle and I’d like to reuse the old knobs if I can.
