5/27/2014 11:57:00 AMThanks! Yeah, they don't have the pumpkinseed or sunfish listed in the species category and didn't want to get into the details- I've run into these types of species quite often around the local lakes in Sno Cnty, but they sure put up a good fight on a light set up!

6/3/2014 1:28:00 PMYes, nice pumpkinseeds. They must be doing well in the lake now. I've fished there off and on for 50 years and still have never seen a sunfish in Cassidy, just crappie, perch, bass, trout and bullheads.
