Lets talk about fishing

WolfyOne · 05-27-2010, 09:34 AM

I haven't had a chance to go fishing yet. Thought I'd live vicariously through those that have. Just when I think I can go, it either rains (alright in Oklahoma it storms) or I'm 2 days mowing our football field of a yard or someone has me running errands. I think I need to get away for a weekend just so I can fish.

Fantastic post Ethan!! I'm glad you've got some friends to get you out there doing what you love to do!!!!!

Well, fishing thread pals, it's hot (high of 99 here for the next three days) (99 - in the shade!!!!!!) so this is the time I usually start doing night fishing mostly for catfish.

My question is do y'all have a magic, special or favorite bait to catch catfish with? I've used chicken livers (wrapped in pantyhose), hotdogs, corn, stink bait, shrimp and nightcrawlers. Does anyone have a special trick they'd like to share?

Thanks

It's time to go fishing, who's ready?

What kind of fishing do you like?

What reel and rod preference?

Do you do catch and release or bring your catch home?

Me, I was ready last year and can't wait

I like to lake fish, but really like river fishing with all it's challenges where snagging is a great possibility when the water is like a racing rapid.

I have several rods and have closed faced reels on all of them.
I'm the lazy fisherman, who wants to toss out my line and wait until I feel a nibble.
The challenge is getting them before they take the live bait.
I get quiet and pay close attention to my line in the water.

River fishing is different, you have to try different ways until you find one that works on that given day. Calm water day, you may just toss out your line and wait. Rushing rapids day, you'll want to be reeling in before the rapids take you farther than you want to be.

I'll be the one bringing home my catch to clean and either eat or put in the freezer for an end of the summer fish fry.

well fishing in Canada is a bit different but.....

i love bass fishing

i caught all of them in the pond in Massachusetts, at the lake in Oregon including a 2 pounder right before i left, and will catch all of the bass in Canada as soon as i can

i like a chartruse 2 oz jig head with a white/chartruse skirt

i love topwater buzz baits the best, but the weather has to be just right for that

also love purple worms with the white tail, bass love em

Nightcrawlers are fun but i rather skip that if i can

i also LOVE flyrod fishing

i fish for anything i won't eat, or pass on. i used to pay for my canoe rental space at the lake to million year old Gus who loved that deal.

Now i catch all the bass i can for my sister who seems to LOVE fish suddenly

I like fishing with nightcrawlers, it's what I was raised up fishing with

I find when fishing for perch in Lake Michigan by Navy Pier, you must use crawdads because they won't bite on anything else

I miss fishing during smelt season in IL and pan frying them as you bring in your catch
This is all net fishing and no poles at all

I don't know enough about artificial bait to know what kind of fish prefers what
If it works for me, I use it, if not I try something else
I used to have a frog that would go through weeds and I lent it out, mistake

The line on my reels are bright green so I can see them because I am a line watcher when lake fishing
