Was out fishing a local pond that I've fished for years. In the earlier years the Bass averaged 1 to 3 lbs. After a few years of not fishing there i desided to see what has changed over the years, what a surprise I was in for. I started out with a jitterbug and only caught 1 , tryed a spinnerbait and got 3 more, i finished with a lizard and got another. The ting that stood out to me was the size they were mostly around 8 inches and the one caught on the jitterbug about 12 inches. These were not the fish I had remembered . They would short strike the spinnerbait and at fist thought i waas hitting debri ben then seen one hit close to shore. The one caught on the jitterbug hit so soft that if you didn't see the strike i might have missed it. I could only think that this is due to over fishing and people keeping the larger fish causing what is leat behind to become indecisive and lure shy . Is this becoming a common situation .
Do you kiss the fish you catch? Just wondering...I kiss the big one`s...I never new that fish can have pretty eyes until I landed a 6.1 lb lg. mouth bass. She had the biggest brown eyes I have every seen on a fish. I kissed that pretty girl! My fishing friend w/me got grossed out... So what`s your input? Kissing or no kissing?
im looking for some goog light weight spinnerbaits. i have been an angler for 10 years now and every year i find myself going for the spinner in any conditions. if anyone has a good deal let me know. im new at this discussion group so please forgive me if any errors occured
I have some awesome spinnerbaits and buzzbaits for sale on my account right now. Went fishing with these baits this past weekend and I was slaying the bass. Love these lures! Make sure you view all my auctions, not just the ones I listed below!
3 things you think of when asked about fishing ? 3 favorite lures ? 3 favorite colors or patterns ? How often do you buy lures online ? How often do you visit fishing websites ? what would you like to see in a fishing website ? Thank you for your response
I cant narrow it down to just one,however here is a few I have used succesfully.....Whole shrimp, Cut shad, night crawlers(large), Liver, crawfish, dough bait, blood bait, and minnows. Anyone want to add to the list ??????????? Bruno
Now that I got your attention; Has anyone out there ever fished somewhere they were not supposed to be ??? Where you aware of it ? Were there any signs posted ? I'm a very laid back fisherman, so I can't enjoy fishing where its prohibited.... HOWEVER; hunting is a totally seperate issue !!!! BRUNO
Chuck Gros, president of Pavati Marine, had an idea a few years ago while taking his grandpa on a float down river.
Grampa was getting to the point where he couldn't get in the boat anymore. "Why don't they put doors in these boats?" he said.
When Chuck decided to build drift boats, this was one of the first things he designed. "I want everyone, young, old, or disabled to enjoy the fun and adventure of riding in a drift boat." says Chuck.
You may have some new ideas as well that you think will make fishing on a drift boat more fun?
Thanks!
