Default Best Fisherman in the KLG

This guy does not practice catch and release. He looks pretty well-fed especially with the easy pickins' due to the clear and very low water in the Gorge.

Cool pic. Up close they're a scary looking creature. Eyes like a dino in Jurassic park. Crazy how fish often see us but rarely see the stealthy, swift, spearheaded heron...

It's all due to its coloration (look how it blends in with the rock) and because it can stay motionless for a very long time. Millions of years of evolution does a lot more for fishing skill than an L.L. Bean catalog.

true.

The herons at KLG seem to be the least worried around anglers. From my experience. They're comfortable enough to be 10 feet away from you and still dunk their head underwater letting their guard down.

Hell, they just do that to prove what superior fishermen they are! Trying to give us all inferiority complexes!

This Green Heron was walking on the dam at SR snatching up baby bass. You can see one in his beak.
I told him he wasn't going to make any friends here doing that, but I don't think he cared.
