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?

Just got back into fishing last year after several years away. Don't know why. Just got to be such a hassle when the kids were little.

Now one boy is an adult, the other is 15, and my daughter is 10. All good ages to really get into it now.

My poor middle son....I felt so bad for him last year as we were all catching fish and he couldn't seem to snag one. I gave him as many pointers as I could but he just had bad luck. He did finally catch one in one of our last fishing trips of the season last year. We were very happy.

I just mainly fish for catfish. Been that way since I was a kid. Tried several of my old spots last year but ended up liking the Shawnee State fishing lake the best. Kind of odd behavior at times though. I could be there for an hour and a half with hardly a bite. Then, catch about 3 fish in 10 minutes.

Looks different anything I have seen.

Check out these pics of monster crappie from John Redmond. The one with my hand weighed in at 1lb 13 oz and was one of a full stringer of crappie that size. The other pic is 2 lb 3 oz with proof on the scale! That was such a big one my dad and I let it go.
lol why are you making that awful face in the second picture?

Even a slow days fishing, out on the water, observing nature... beats a lot of other ways to spend a day, R8ers... looks like that might be a pretty good sized lake you're on.

On those days I go to the end the wind is blowing from and just drift in the middle... I get tired of fighting the wind.. Hung em straight off the boat with the tips about a foot from the water, turned on the classic rock station and drifted for 3 or 4 hours, just me and my dog...

I've always had more problems with turtles on the rivers. In fact, the Neosho river by Twin Bridges is full of them bait stealing bastages.

Would you pull this boat with this truck?


I hooked my boat to my little Mazda b2300 4cyl and pulled it around my neighborhood, I stopped it on hills and restarted to simulate leaving boat ramps, I braked hard a few times to see if it stopped fine... Everything seemed fine...

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

It should do the trick for atleast a little while, but i'm thinking your transmission will burn out sooner rather than later, but if you only paid $1000 for it i guess its no big deal.

What i'd be more worried about short term, are the brakes on that little thing, i'd make sure they're in perfect working order & go gently on them whenever possible.

I have brand new brakes and the tranny is manual, the thing I worry about the most is the clutch when exiting the water

The specs on the truck say it will tow 1600 lbs with a tounge weight of no more that 500..

I know the tounge weight is probably about 200

I used to pull my 25 foot offshore boat out with my Ford Ranger. Surprisingly it worked. Wouldn't wanna go outta town that way though.
