- This was one of the better fishing sessions with four new species being caught and added to my lifelist. It's hard to say which was my favorite catch of the day, but I think that would have to be the coastal darter (Etheostoma colorosum). I love darters and this is one with a relatively small range and one I might not encounter any time soon. The blackbanded darter (Percina nigrofasciata) and flagfin shiners (Pteronotropis signipinnis) were beautiful in their own right and I even managed a brown darter (Etheostoma edwini) after I turned the camera off for the day. What a great session this ended up being.

Broo..this is amazing!! Keep doing your thing!!!
Thank you for the kind words.
Welcome to my neck of the woods. I'm a 7th generation native of Florida. My ancestor owned the mill that Milton was named after.
Never seen a fishing video where someone just caught minnows. However, I love nature and you did a fantastic job of showing the natural beauty of these tiny critters.
Thank you very much. I loved that area. It was my first time on the panhandle and it was interesting to see how different it was from my part of Florida (Fort Lauderdale area).
Brilliant as always. I hope you realise how lucky you are! We only have ~35 species of freshwater fish in the uk and I caught pretty much all of them in a year, only 2 invasives (Prussian carp and Wels Catfish) left plus some endangered stuff like Shad which are too rare to actively target :(
You are correct on how lucky it is to be multi species anglers in the US. So much diversity with states like AR or MO with well over 200 species and TN with over 300 freshwater species. Then there are the saltwater opportunities.
Thank you. Yes, I realize how fortunate we are here. It's crazy how a state like Alabama has 10x as many species as the entire UK.
Great video! Love those sailfin and flagfin shiners. I started microfishing catching darters and they are still my first love 😉. I chase them whenever I can.
Thanks. Darters are awesome. I love any kind of small bottom species.
@@TheFishingNomad I think that you love sculpin fishing in MO/AR creeks and rivers. Or chasing crested, striped or feather blennies here in MD or NJ.
@johnaufderheide6117 You're right on all accounts. Now I just need to find the time to get up to those spots.
How do you find these spots man? Just driving around or do you do extensive google earth sat image searches before hand lol
Very rarely do I find spots by driving around. Although in the next video coming out (Saturday) I did find one spot like that. I do find a lot of them using Google Maps satellite view. I've gotten pretty good at it, especially if there are street view images of the area.
Well Done
