The Fishing Thread

Searched around & only found the video fishing & BassMasters threads, i know their are plenty of outdoorsman here, so i figured it'd be cool to draw upon the Planets vast experience in all things fishing.

I only use spincast reels & fish mostly large/smallmouth bass & cats. My choice of reels is quite the source of derision from many people i know 'duffer gear', but i haul in my share of 6 pound bass & 10-20 pound cats on that gear no problem. With a little know-how you can use just about any technique you want to on 'duffer gear'.

Berkley Powerbaits are a big part of my trick bag, the difference between those & regular stuff is night & day. My best action last summer came on Mister Twister scented white curly tail grubs, on one day fishing from shore to a bridge pier, i caught smallies, bigmouths, perch & even 1 carp believe it or not... great day. But my bread & butter is a texas rigged Berkley worm, it'll wiggle through any kind of cover without getting hung up.

With cats i strictly bottom fish, no bobber & bait is just as basic... but its always in 2's to give'em a real treat... a shrimp/with a nightcrawler, liver/chunk of cheese etc. Cats are mostly for night sport to me, time to kick back a lil...

So thats me style, how do the rest of you guys get your fish on? What do you fish for, what do you use? IIRC Missouri's trout season just kicked off, anyone getting anything?

Didnt mean to sound doubtful, DG... not one reason to doubt you

And when they're hitting at that rate, even smalls are thrilling when they come in bunches like that

Glad to hear things are cooking down there, kinda maybe looks like spring is starting to set in here as well

Yeah, I need to go through the tackle box and start getting things in gear...

I have been out a few times in the past month. Once in my kayak, once in the uncles boat, and once from shore. Three different locations, three different methods, and not a single fish.

Yeah it is. The drives out suck though. What's really frustrating is when you know they are down there, crappie, but they just won't bite. Have to be there on the right days and time of day though.

How long does it take you to get out there, are you deep in a busy metro area?

ed* Only ask that because having recently taken another big tour of Chicago, and being in St Louis all the time, it further impressed me that I cant live anywhere that takes a 1-2 hours to find a small piece of silence to myself

I am pretty set into Overland Park but all the main highways are close. I get to pretty much any of the main Kansas reservoirs near KC in 45 minutes to an hour depending on where I am headed. Hillsdale is an easier drive though. There are other areas closer like the smaller city lakes but I don't go to those much since I tend to like getting out of the city. Spawning season coming up should certainly help the bite. I especially like that since it's much easier to get out there quickly without needing to load a kayak.

Got some pond fishing in today. I took my three year old daughter with me. She loves to fish. She didn't catch anything on her "frozen" rod and reel using worms. A little disappointed in the fish for that. I caught a handful of largemouth on my new Johnny Morris carbonlite spinner rod&reel. It's an ultralight with six lb Cajun line. Ultralight fishing is awesome.

It is isn't it. I love wade fishing Flat Creek or floating James River with my ultra lights. It doesn't get any better than a 3 to 5 lb. smallmouth out of a creek or river on ultra light tackle. Damnit ..........now I HAVE to go fishing this week.

I fish my families ponds a handful of times a year and always catch a lot of 1-2lb largemouth. I figured I might as well make them feel like five pounders.

I use to be able to out muscle those with my baitcast with 10lb line.

Wish I knew how, but around here it just isnt needed... if I lived out west where its a crucial skill in so many areas, it would get figured out

Bwana is a good one to hit up for advice, sure I'm forgetting other western style fishing pro's around here as well

Pretty sure NewChief and Loochie have great posts in this thread on fly fishing

That's funny you guys were just talking about ultra light fishing. I have started doing that much more lately for fun rather than necessity. In my kayak it is much easier to use small equipment so I have a couple of 4' 6" rods and small spinner reels with 4 lb test.

I have not been using them in all varieties of circumstances. I am not fishing for catfish so I am not likely to catch some monster that will just break the line right away.

The past few weekends I have been doing some shore fishing and found that the white bass are hitting very hard right now. I don't keep them but on an ultra light outfit like I am using they are a heck of a battle. I have even gotten into a few large mouths as well.
