Help ID Lake Sumter fish
Just before the Riley Grove signature hole on #7 you have to cross two wooden bridges. If you look into the water you can see several circular clearings with each usually holding a fish. As a Northeast bluewater canyon fisherman, I am not familiar with the fish that reside in Lake Sumter. The fish I would like to ID at first glance looked like it had a bass type tail but a closer look suggests its in the carp family.... maybe. It has a reddish tail and body looks silver and bright blue with uniform scales. It appears to have a small mouth. I would guess they are 10-12 inches long.
I checked on line but can't find a match. Do any Village fishermen posters know what species the Sumter fish is?
