Redside Shiner- Willamette River Sept. 24

This fish has character- a female redside shiner- who masqueraded as a chub until I figured out what she really was. The ident took books, the internet, and turns out to be a common specie in the Willamette River. A vintage 32 ft Chris Craft sat on the bottom of the slew near my fishing site. I imagined the fun had on the boat in its youth...hoola hoops, bikinis, coppertone, high times. It was broken and silted, no windows...teak railings indistinguishable. Kind of a sad sight...
