[@WildFishTanks]

We found flagfish!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYm1in16rpmEocU

[@bobbyreich0226]

LOL I love it, just like a kid in a candy store, but I'm sure I'd be the same way

[@catfishcave379]

This was fun to watch!!

[@WildFishTanks]

It’s awesome just to get out there. Running into the wild life is just a bonus

[@HalfMoonWatercolor]

Time to try out snorkel fishing!

[@AquariumAdventures]

Looks like fun!

[@WildFishTanks]

Think you could use the same size set up for a Wells catfish?

[@eprohoda]

BBravo-what a well ~my dear,🤚

[@COOPERSCICHILDS]

Definitely would love to go back up in there great video guys I think I had more fun watching 😆

[@WildFishTanks]

He’s definitely a little more bold than me

[@garyduncan6657]

Super cool video! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!

[@mingbritson]

SO COOL!!! Thanks for sharing. I hope to collect some natives this spring (Minnesota)...

[@shammaiduncan6622]

Must be so fun catching fish in the river like that. Love these types of videos

[@marypaigeflynn4512]

Ooooo let's go collecting 🙌✌️♥️🌿🐟🌿

[@WildFishTanks]

Buckle up!

[@stellarlivingstoned]

This is awesome

[@darrylmoore5847]

That was incredible, and what a beautiful location.

[@pelhamsaquatics]

What a cool adventure! Very awesome and i know you had to have had a blast!

[@WildFishTanks]

Always fun to get out and get some fresh air. Catching the fish is the bonus!

[@dancaruso9156]

Awesome video, please do more like this. I think micro fishing is going to be my new hobby of 2022. I would love to see a video more in depth about the gear and where to buy micro gear. Keep up the good work I enjoy all your content.

[@WildFishTanks]

Appreciate the support Dan. I’ll have a couple more Microfishing videos coming out and a lot more Collecting/native based content in general as well

[@PULAG]

Could you go to spot and toss in fish flake food in same spot for a week straight and then go catch them? Think that would work?

[@WildFishTanks]

I guess there’s only one way to find out

[@FoxyFoxyShazam]

Fun video! There's a microfishing subreddit thats relatively active in case you didn't already know!

[@WildFishTanks]

I’ll have to check it out. I knew about aquaswap and a few others but not that one

[@oscararellano4152]

what bait did you use

[@cnjhendricks]

coooool!

[@drockingfish]

very nice!!!

[@tanganikawabrzych6823]

Super

[@miguelmedina6205]

I'm in Tampa, and I would love to go out with you guys.

[@nayaleezy]

you guys are wild, see any 🐊?

[@WildFishTanks]

Not this time but I’ve seen gators there before and since

[@redcorsair14]

Once again, I can think of three places this might be, the Econ, Shingle Creek or Green Swamp. Am i right? If you like the black banded darters go back up to Kings Landing and do some netting near the tubing return bridge up by the springs. They are a very aggressive fish in an aquarium.

[@WildFishTanks]

Correct once again. Yea I remember seeing tons of the black banded darters by Kings Landing. Actually caught my first ever pygmy Sunfish they are as well (my friend did, first time I had ever saw a live one) Just a single male though

[@vegaslocal7555]

Interesting that he uses a line and rod vs a net. Cool vid hopefully no gators / leeches.

[@WildFishTanks]

Luckily neither. He uses a net sometimes but likes the challenge of hooking them haha

[@onlywei]

What’s your anti mosquito strategy for these activities?

[@WildFishTanks]

Typically just long sleeves. Don’t have to worry about spray too often. It depends on the time of year for sure though

[@nancydenmark1614]

I’d be just as concerned about the gator avoidance strategy.

[@RobsAquariumRoom]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@TheAquariumLibrary]

I think microfishing allows you to better catch species that you wouldn't be able to catch with a dip net. Trying to catch fast moving shiners in open water sounds terrible, and that is where hook and line works great. Or you could just seine the entire place, but sometimes seining isn't even a possibility due to terrain or make up of the stream.

[@WildFishTanks]

That’s a good point. In this case the shiners would’ve been pretty easy to dipnet but the darters not so much with all the debris in the water

[@mobruhmba760]

whats the point of catching tiny fish

[@TheAquariumLibrary]

What's the point of keeping aquarium fish? Because it brings happiness into our lives. Catching small fish is no different. Did you hear their excitement when catching those fish?

[@Xray2j]

if you ever need a cameraman to tag along.......just saying

[@philliptaylor5981]

lol

[@riverdweller3208]

how are these small hooks? were to buy them?
