Lets talk about fishing
I'm opening this thread to anyone that likes fishing. Tell us about your favorite kind of fishing? Do you prefer lakes, rivers, streams, oceans or just good old fashioned ponds? What kind of rod and reel do you prefer to use? Would you rather fish from a boat or from the shore? These and other like questions can and should be posted here. I'm interested in learning about all kinds of fishing techniques. What works for you, what doesn't? Ok, I think ya'll get my drift.

Fishing...
I love it. I have a marlin and dolphin mounted and hanging on my wall that I caught off Ocean City, Maryland.
I would love to travel one day to Venezuala (sp?) for sailfish, or Hawaii for shark. The only problem I have is the rolling waves make me so sea sick. No matter what I take, I get sick - but I still go. I always tell Rosie that I want to buy and live off a fishing boat in the Caribbean. Then I could fish and snorkel for fresh seafood everyday. What a life. |
aaaaaawwww a thread right up my ally. I grew up fishing on the deep sea boats out in San Diego,on the pacific ocean.I at one time had a 16 foot Thunderbird cathedral hull open bow boat with bait tank and fish finder.I love ocean fishing more than lake or pond fishing. There is nothing like having a great fight on your line with 50-60 pound test when you hit up a tuna.I have a custom made rod with open face reel for ocean fishing. I also have a Shakespeare light weight spinning reel combo for lake and pond fishing. I have two tackle boxes, one for ocean fishing and one for fresh water fishing.I'm looking forward to fishing down in the gulf when i move down there. My Lady White Tigress actually took me to baytown and showed me around where i saw a couple of guys fishing with a net in knee deep water with all these fish they caught,and got me itching to go fishing LOL. I have fished here at the lake and caught and released in my pond on my property.I also like to feed them and ducks LOL. I watched a couple with their child catching blue crabs with a piece of chicken on a string and thought I would like to do that also. I have been land locked for so long i can't wait to get to the ocean.As far as bait goes, i mainly use shrimp when im lake fishing. On the ocean i use squid,shrimp,anchovies.Mainly in San Diego we used anchovies and squid.
Great thread...........Thanks TIMBER |
Timber,
You said it! A yellowfin tuna is awesome to reel in! It took me close to 3 hours to reel in a 45 pound tuna on a deep sea trip. It just kept diving. Up and down we fought. In the end, I won. It was good eating I was told. I don't eat fish, but I grill it and smoke it for others to eat. |

I don't mind fishing off a ocean pier either like Ocean Beach in SD or in Port Arandis (sp)on the gulf.My Lady being fair skinned redhead has to stay out of the sun so maybe this might be a guy thing? TIMBER |

I went out on a 3 day fishing trip out of Ensenada and loved it .Being a Mexican fishing boat our cook, Captain and crew loved to show us the fish, even cooking our catch if we wanted.Talk about authentic food.I really loved growing up in San Diego with being able to drive and not have to worry about what they do now a days in baja with troops and drug dealers and their wars going on there. Really shame. but back to the thread.sorry for the derail TIMBER |

I'm in Stillwater and I think meeting in Arkansas for fishing would be great. No boat towing except to a fishing hole. I mean, I travel to Austin when I want to and can hang with my friends there. Someone there always manages to have a place to stay for most of us that ask early enough. |
We might have to have our lady's that don't want to go fishing have a day without us.........southern Ca huh? Im originally from San Diego and go back every once in a while. thats how I met up with Oiler again for a Christmas party there, Now he's down here living in austin LOL

I cannot stand watching the fishing boats offshore netting. It really is just a sign of the times I guess. Every shoreman and fisherman are so very desperate for a catch that they are going farther and farther offshore to net in the Atlantic.
Some of the watermen that I have spoken to are so very supersticious. They think it is a sign of the end of time. That the fish are heading farther out to sea because of the continents falling into the sea. Their thinking - not mine. Have any of you guys watched the movie "Perfect Storm"? It was back on tv last week. |
I loved fishing for Croaker and Red Fish in Texas - but I won't eat anything from the ocean and not many lakes anymore. So I haven't been fishing in forever. I do love sport fishing - catch and release....

I'm in, where do I sign up and when do we start making plans? BTW, niceguy says there's a place to go floating out your way, which means there's a river. River fishing can be fun. Quote:
