These are very nice and the colors are consistent with what we see down on the Edisto River for spawning RBS..more like an orange during the spawn which turns into a "garnet" type red color the rest of the year....nice going Larry.......

Yeah I had not considered it is the first of August! The males were spraying and females packed with eggs. I guess it true they bed every month as long as the water temp is right. I floated over a couple of beds and saw them running out. Lumber River is around 77* this time of year.

Wow! I was going to say they looked to have spawning colors, but...on bed in August? That's crazy, but soooo cool! Excellent catch!
