    Default Chestnut Lamprey/pictures


    I caught a Crappie today that had this on it. We had posts about them earlier and I wanted to show a live one.

    Nimrod, I caught several 2 years ago out of the White River that had those on them. Caught a white bass at Georgetown this year before the flood that had one.

    Well I for one don't like the looks of that critter. I really hope I don't catch any down here. They look mean.

    I have caught hundreds of crappie over the years out of the Tennessee river that had them on it. However every one i caught that had one of those came out of the same fishing hole. I never caught them at another location with them, seems odd.

    I'm one of the ones that was posting last Spring about them -
    Thanks for putting a picture of it up, I think a bunch of folks didn't
    believe it was really lampreys I was catching. But they were just like what
    you have there.

    I'd saw 'em stuck on some blue cat, but never on Crappie till then.
    We caught three or four fish with them, and had friends catch
    several too. This was TN river, Pickwick, Mills Creek area.
    Have not seen them this year, hope I don't!

    All I have to say is GROSS. That thing looks like something out of a nightmare
