Sunday 6pm, air temp 85 water temp 80.
While fishing the channel area of dyke marsh I got to observe within 10 feet
a least bittern stalking and devouring bait fish. I had been casting to the
shore the bittern was on for several minutes before I even noticed the
movement. I watched the bird for several minutes while listening to marsh
wrens and
eventually hooking a 3 pound large mouth bass which was released back to its
watery environment.
