An 11-12 inch Largemouth Bass, caught on a green Rebel "Crickhopper" floating lure in Lake Loree. This beautiful 10-acre lake is part of the Sunny Hill Resort and Golf Course in Greenville, Greene County, New York, in the Catskill Mountains region. (NOTE: All fish I catch returned to the lake)

It's a wonder how interesting even the worst and shakiest shots sometimes come out! A doe Whitetail Deer (Odocolleus virginianus) grazing along the shore of 10-acre Lake Loree at the Sunny Hill Resort and Golf Course in Greenville, Greene County, New York. I just returned from a ten day trip there to fish, eat, relax, photograph, get fresh air and meet new friends. All pf my goals were accomplished! I hope everyone's summer has been safe and well.

This shot of an enormous five inch long Largemouth Bass demonstrates two things" 1 - I'm great at catching tiny fish, and 2 - I needed to get my fingernails trimmed. Hope you like this little guy!

A small trophy I received recently at the Sunny Hill Resort in the Catskill Mountains of New York for winning their weekly Adult Fishing Contest. I won with an 11-inch Largemouth Bass.

An 11 inch long Largemouth Black Bass, caught in 10 acre Lake Loree at the Sunny Hill Resort in New York's Catskill Mountains. Located in Greenville in Greene County, the resort opened in 1920, and has been my family's and my favorite vacation spot since 1946.

A Red Slug, "Arion rufus," photographed at the Sunny Hill Resort in Greenville, New York, in the Catskill Mountains. I found it on a fallen White Pine next to Lake Loree.

Ox-eye Daisy growing around Lake Loree at the Sunny Hills Resort and Golf Course in Greenville, Greene County, New York. This popular Catskill Mountain resort opened in 1920. Ten acre Lake Loree has great boating and fishing for Largemouth Bass, Bluegill and Black Crappie and Catfish. For golfers, there are two beautiful 18-hole courses.

A Black Crappie, Pomoxis nigromaculatus, a member of the Sunfish Family. This family also includes the Bluegill and Largemouth and Smallmouth Black Bass. This specimen, approximately 9 inches long, was caught on a yellow Rebel Crickhopper floating lure, twitched on the surface. Caught in Lake Loree at the Sunny Hill Resort in Greenville, Greene County, New York, summer, 2020. This is a popular Catskill Mountain resort. Crappie are handsome and hard fighting fish. It was returned to the lake immediately.

A Green Tree Frog, Lithobates clamitans. shot at Lake Loree at the Sunny Hill Resort and Golf Course in Greenville, Greene County, New York. Sunny Hill is a 101 year old Catskill Mountains vacation spot that I have been coming to on and off for 69 years, when I was the ripe old age of one! Hope you enjoy it!!

A Green Sunfish, Lepomis cyanellus, caught in a pond at the Sunny Hill Resort and Golf Course in Greenville, Greenville County, New York. This special place is in the majestic Catskill Mountains. Interestingly, although I have been fishing in New York State for most of my 70 years, I have never encountered or caught this beautiful non-native species before. It is originally from Asia.

A couple of my fellow guests out for a romantic row on Lake Loree at the Sunny Hill Resort in New York's Catskill Mountains. Question: Would you have cropped out the living and dead trees on the left side of the image, or does that help to balance and frame the photo?

A small Pumpkinseed Sunfish (Lepomis gibbosis) out of his element at Lake Loree at the Sunny Hill Resort in New Yok's Catskill Mountains. After his "sixty seconds of fame," he was back with his friends (and enemies!).
