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?

thats a drum alright. People look at them as trash fish, but they eat minnows, insects, and worms just like most game fish, and have some of the most flaky white flesh there is in fresh water. My son and I keep them when we catch em and mix them in with the crappie or catfish we are fishing for when we catch em. Very tasty fish.

See, all I’ve ever heard about them is that they’re very boney and oily, so they always get thrown back

He did describe the way a drum fights to a T though, hugging the bottom like you’ve hooked a log, they don’t really thrash around like a cat will

I do most of my fishing in creeks and smaller rivers using ultra lite tackle. They usually don't have to fight very long before I land them.

Dang sorry to hear that what a devastating year along the rivers.

That’s probably my favorite type of fishing, whether from the bank or kayak or boat. I especially like using 4.5 foot rods as part of my light tackle. That and in a reservoir outlet when water is being released as you never know what you might catch, whether walleye, wiper, catfish, crappie, a school of super aggressive white bass, or some big drum.

Yep, that’s why I do it... the fight... plus I like to stock local ponds.

Oh man, it broke my heart... got it about a foot away from my feet. Bit the line. I bought steel leaders the next day.

It was on a large white chatterbait.

My grandpa was obsessed with catching those bad boys, he used to hand craft his own lures. I tell you what, he was a church attending, God fearing man, but one time I saw him lose one of his custom made swim baits, I've never heard someone lose their religion so fast lol. Nothing worse than losing your gear, those chatterbaits aren't cheap either. I have a bunch of the originals, but I bought one of the "ZMAN" chartreuse ones yesterday, its been so long since I have been in a the fishing section of Field and Stream I forgot how magnificent it was lol.

I catch a lot of shit for eating drum, but they're on par with white bass as far as the taste. So why the hell not?

Get you some gear for it and do it! Once you hook and net your first one you’ll want to do it all the time. It’s a grind but well worth it when you land one. RELEASE RELEASE RELEASE though. If you do end catching one be sure to take care of it while in your possession. Musky guys will publicly stone you if they see you killed one or kept one.

Muskie and northern pike don't do well after a good fight out of water. They're definitively quick release. Beautiful fish but fragile.
