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 basically all that truck is is a 1994 Ranger Only thing I am worried about is the pull out of the water and the extra drag in the water by the boat pulling out.

I know the tounge weight is probably about 200
Yea, that’s what I’d be worried about too. But you should be backing up far enough to get water in the clutch, which would be really bad news as you’d be stuck until the clutch dries.
For short trips I’d think you’d be fine as I doubt your boat is that heavy but for comfort and stability sake I wouldn’t try going cross state with that setup.
500/1000 lb is pretty typical Class III receiver hitch specs, IIRC.

Edit: I didn't recall correctly, Class III receiver hitch specs are 500/5000.

Interesting. Motorcycle Drag Racing buddy texted me the same picture a couple of weeks ago. Didn't say where it was caught but claimed it's a new state record, 5 lb 9 oz.

Truth. Bet that was one hell of a fight on a crappie rig.

Heh, I’ll be damned. Funny how those things make the rounds like that, even in text format.

I finally bought my FS10 Ascend fishing kayak. I have not gotten to use it yet but I am pumped for it. I went ahead and put on an anchor trolley system. Eventually I will probably get a small fish finder for it as well.

I have been a Tractor Trailer driver for over 25 years pulling double trailers so I am really not what you would consider a rookie at heavy loads, My truck is old , 200k + I only gave 1000 bucks for it 5 years ago (I have put 60k on it with only replacing the brakes )

Would you pull this boat with this truck? I have an Explorer but I hate pulling a boat with an SUV . Boat is a 16.5 Monark with a 50 hp
I went to the lake with the truck today and damn near didn't get out... Started raining when we were having the best fishing day this year and then started lightning so we had to go...

I smoked the clutch up a bit, felt like the boat was chained to a tree... I will not be using that anymore to pull this boat, may get me a second smaller one.

Can someone explain what kind of setup would be used with a Powerbait minnow for trout? What kind hook, spinner, etc.?

Drum are not too bad eating. Just deep fry them well, and make sure the breading is fairly flavorful. Honestly, they're probably a bit more of a whiter meat than catfish, with about the same taste, and the meat is a bit more flakey.
