Thanks for sharing the pics. Sounds like the rest of the system beyond the Deshka is doing fairly well.

Not a diss, just a suggestion...



These types of "fish in the water" pics are WAY more effective when the fish is still alive. The dead as a doornail miotic stare and the fishbox watermark does that fish NO justice.

I had a guy insist on taking one of those posed "fish in the water" shots... it looked horribly disingenuous with a ripped gill arch hanging outside the operculum!
