We are a week from the 4th of July and I still haven't caught a fish this year.
I'm to the point where this isn't even fun anymore. I know they aren't my spots, but i get so pissed off when i see someone fishing or throwing a net in one of "my spots". Facebook has ruined the secret fishing hole. Two years ago there was rarely another fisherman on that river. Now I see someone new each time i go down there. I can't get bait and I destroyed my 4th cast net in little over a years time on Monday. Those add up at $25 a pop. My spots are being taken over by out of towners from Missouri who get there at 4 am and fish all ****ing weekend. I finally was able to get more than a few shad on Sunday and got chased off by a storm 45 minutes in. I just want to catch some fish. Is that too much to ask? /rant over |

And to top it all off I just snapped my $80 whisker seeker rod between the 1st and 2nd eye.

My advice is to start thinking small, there are monster catfish in the deep pools of every single creek that feeds off your favorite river... all 3 of my top cats, and some of my favorite sport fishing moments came from the deep, and sometimes very shallow, pools of a small creek Spend an extra $5 in gas and get away from the crowds |

We are getting overrun with amish around here.
They don't care about limits. They bring everyone. It's crazy |

Asains are the same way on the west coast. They bucket everything they pull up with crab nets. They show up about 30 folks deep, from infant to decrepit. Throw over a few crab nets, load up in a hurry and go home.

Same in my area. 5 years ago, I don't think I ever saw an Asian fishing in any of the areas I fish. Now, they unload out of vans like Ants and take everything they catch. I was bank fishing, just enjoying the morning, next thing I know, I have 15 Asian's right next to me. Mexicans in our area are also pretty bad, they will take over an entire bank, they will throw 10-15 lines per person, you cant even get a spot sometimes. I try to find the more secluded areas, but even that is hard sometimes, ideally I like to pond fish, but most of my connections are gone since I moved further out in the country. |

There is a gang of Asian street racers from KCK that show up and fish all the wiper out of the Wakarusa river every summer.

Just so I'm not being racist, there are plenty of white trash snaggers shitting up the fishing too.

That's a sweet boat. Put you a Garmin Panoptix up front so you can see the fish out in front of the boat.
