Did you know that the name WISSAHICKON is derived from the Lenni-Lenape word "Wiessahitkonk," which translates as "Catfish Creek" or "Stream of Yellowish Color?!" Hey... don't ever say that you don't learn anything by watching EPF contents on social media, alright?! πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

On a side note, the Eurotackle 1" EPF Swim strikes again at the Wissahickon Creek in Philadelphia, PA. STAY TUNED for the FULL VIDEO dropping on YouTube TOMORROW, OCTOBER 24th, at 4 p.m. EST.

β€” LIFER SPOTLIGHT β€”

In today's LIFER SPOTLIGHT post, we have a Rosy Bitterling (Rhodeus ocellatus) that I caught from the Licun He (ζŽζ‘ζ²³; a.k.a. Licun River) in Qing Dao, Shan D**g, China, on August 7th, 2024.

Fun fact of the day: The Rosy Bitterling is usually referred to as the "Tairiku baratanago" by the Japanese folks. You may recognize part of its name β€” "TANAGO" β€” from the art of Tanago fishing with Tanago Hooks. The Owner Half-Moon hooks that I use for Micro Fishing on the YouTube Channel are TANAGO HOOKS.

That being said, August 7th, 2024, was one of my "DREAMS COME TRUE" type of day. For the longest time EVER, I had a goal of catching a Tanago-type fish (a.k.a., a Bitterling) on a Tanago hook. But there was only one problem: here in the United States of America, and even down south in Brazil, THERE WERE NO BITTERLINGS to be found. Lol.

Anyways... After catching a bunch of Rosy Bitterlings in China, now I can tell people that I have officially done some form of TANAGO FISHING with TANAGO HOOKS. My next goal now is to go to Japan one of these days and do some TRADITIONAL JAPANESE TANAGO FISHING with the locals for different species of bitterlings in the ditches and runs of rural zones. Well... let's leave this idea for a post in the far, far future. Heh.

On a side note, the Rosy Bitterling has some AMAZING colors, huh?! How many different colors can you SEE from this single photos alone? Myself, I count AT LEAST EIGHT COLORS from this one sample!!! Talk about a beautiful and colorful little fish...
