Fifth Graders had fun fishing. |
Green sunfish are fun to catch. |
 |
Bluegill are found in more locations of Alabama than any other fish. They are also the largest sunfish species. |
Students learn a lot for themselves when given an opportunity to learn hands-on. |
Bluegill have lots of colors on their skin.
|
Catching fish of any size is fun. |
Catching a green sunfish can bring a big smile. |
The help of parents was greatly appreciated. |
Good job, guys, a double. |
The Principal of Legacy Elementary School made the most of her time by interacting with her students. |
Keith Trawick spent a lot of time organizing the event. It was well worthwhile.

|
This bluegill with its more pastel colors is probably a female.
|
This bluegill with its coppery color is probably a male.
|
Bluegill eat insects, worms and algae. |
Green sunfish will eat most anything. |
A largemouth bass was caught at the beginning of the day and at the end of the day. |
Some students learned to hold the fish without getting stuck by the spines. |
Some of the faculty thought students should not be the only ones to have fun. |
 |
Thanks, Larry for your help. Good luck in the Collegiant Regional Tournament on May 20 and 21, 2011. |
