Trio of Sunfish Set Sail for Record

Three friends set sail from Miami on June 1, aiming to break the Guinness World Record for the fastest cross-Atlantic voyage by sunfish.

The current record is held by a sunfish named "Big Ben", who made the crossing from Wales to Ireland in just over 13 days.

The three friends, all experienced sailors, hope to break that record by completing the crossing in under 10 days.

Their sunfish, named "Sunny", is a specially-modified craft that is designed for speed and agility.

The trio will be using a variety of techniques to make the crossing as quickly as possible, including sailing at night and taking advantage of favorable winds and currents.

They are also making use of a support boat that will accompany them on their journey and provide them with food and water.

The crew is optimistic about their chances of success and looks forward to crossing the finish line in record time.

Sunfish Victim of Boating Accident

A sunfish that was part of a research project in the Potomac River was found decapitated last week, apparently the victim of a boating accident.

The sunfish had been fitted with a tracking tag and researchers were monitoring its movements as part of a study to learn more about the behavior patterns of the fish in the river.

According to researchers, the sunfish was found decapitated about a quarter-mile from where it had been released two months earlier. They believe it was hit by a boat propeller.

"It's unfortunate that this happened," said one of the researchers. "But we learned some valuable information from this project, and we'll continue to study these fish in the hope that we can learn how to protect them."

Sunfish a Popular Choice for Anglers

There are many different types of fish that can be caught in freshwater, but sunfish are one of the most popular among anglers. These fish are known for their bright colors and for being quite easy to catch. They can be found in many different parts of the country, and they are usually quite plentiful.

Sunfish can be caught with a wide variety of baits, including worms, crickets, small pieces of baitfish, and even dough balls. They tend to bite fairly aggressively, so they can be a lot of fun to catch. In addition to being popular with anglers, sunfish are also a favorite among kids because they are relatively easy to catch and they taste good too.

If you're looking for a fun and challenging fish to target in freshwater, sunfish should definitely be at the top of your list. They can be found in many different states, and they provide a great opportunity to land a big one. So get out there and start fishing for some sunnies!

Sunfish Season Opens with a Bang

The much anticipated sunfish season opener was held on Saturday, May the 5th and it did not disappoint. Anglers from all over the area descended on the ponds, canals and river to try their luck at landing one of these beauties.

The weather was perfect, with a light breeze and temperatures in the mid 70's. The fish were biting too, with many anglers taking home a nice sunfish dinner.

Overall, it was a great day for fishing and everyone is looking forward to the rest of the season.

Sunfish Dominate Tournament

The sunfish have been dominating the tournament scene as of late. This small, but scrappy fish, has been outperforming the other contestants.

This is largely in part to their unique ability to feed off of the smaller fish in the competition. They are also incredibly hardy, which allows them to withstand the pressures of the tournament setting.

Sunfish are also very aggressive when it comes to competing for food. This makes them a formidable opponent for any fish in the competition.

Tournaments provide a great opportunity for these small fish to make a big impression. The sunfish are quickly becoming one of the most popular fish in this type of setting.
