lol, a mystery. Fun.
I set a DIY fish trap over at the pond, trying to catch a mystery fish that is just too fast for me. Hoping to head back there tonight, and pull up some fish. The trap isn't perfect, so I don't think I'll catch much.

It is made of a Hawaiian Punch juice container, lol. Cut off the top, flipped it around, and stappled it so it would stay that way. I was told to use Bread for bait. Going back in a few min. to check it out. Much more action after dark

lol
So, I just came back from the pond, and checked of my 'amazing' fish trap and... I caught two large Minnows (Needed some of them) and a baby Bluegill or Sunfish, lol. Did not expect that! I reset the trap hoping to catch more large minnows for the Native Fish tank. I'll be back there in about 20 min. I also took some pics of the trap and pond, but couldn't get them off of my Cell phone. I'll try again in a bit. I will also get some pics of the Native tank and Bullhead/Bluegill or Sunfish tank.

call me dumb, but i have no idea how it works.
Maybe the minnow died in the trap???? Possible?
Or maybe it just got washed into it.....

lol, I guess the point is to catch them by surprise. If there are fish in the trap, and I pull in the trap fast enough, they wont have time to swim out.
