I caught bluegill three longears and a few small bass. I had to bring the longear home. I used the drip method to acclimatize them to the tank water and temperature. The creek water was 75 degrees and the tank is 80. This took about an hour and a half. Then in they went. They have been very active and within an hour were looking intently at the bottom at some old food. I left them for a few hours and they settled down and explored the tank. Dropped a few bits of worm and they ate that readily. So they are settling in for their first night.
I had a lot of fun on the bank this morning and more watching the tank. It was a good day.
