a good way to catch cats is to use a piece of another fish like a sunfish. i mean a large piece. no other fish will mess with it. cast it in the evening and success. take a sunny cut it into 4ths or even 3rds

I used 3/4 of a rock bass last night and Got some bites. Pulled the line in after a while and line was bite off like clean cut. I also had a fishing pole fly over the bridge railing because of a fish haha. We caught the pole back eventually and the fish was off it.

Congrats of her win man!!

These are a couple snappers my father caught a couple months ago

Ok my mind cannot comprehend what happened two days ago. For the sake of hanging out, my buddies and I went fishing two days ago.
Temperature 32-44 degrees
fishing from 6am to 12
Up until 10, 2 fish caught (blue/silver 3in poppers because yolo)
10-11 another 2 fish caught at a secret spot we go to for guaranteed but not big bass. (blue/silver 3inch poppers)
We decided to progressively move further down the lake
11-12, EVERY SINGLE CAST with a bright colored crankbait was a fish. I had an orange/red crankbait, my friend had an orange, and my other friend had blue orange red
Ended the day with 46 bass total in frigid temps. There was a solunar period at 12, and for whatever reason the fishing died out.
I would've caught more fish to break 50, but I was too busy taking pictures then turning around to take pictures and then turning around to take pics again.
Only 5 were over a lb so not even pic worthy.
Has anyone else had a day like this on freshwater?

[HairyScandinavian]

Not in fresh but locate a school of feeding fish in the bay and it's ON... until it's off. Like flipping a switch.

Stopped taking pics when the phone almost went overboard.

Wow that looks like a blast. me and my good friend take my canoe out sometimes and fish similar to that.

Yeah, they're gags. Only one I'm not sure about is the middle right, rarely catch them.

I did some fishing last month. Did not catch anything worth keeping on the first trip. Just a few small guys. However the second outing let me get some trout which was delicious on the grill.

[HairyScandinavian]

I've been fishing a few times and neglected the pics, sorry. Here's shots from the most recent trip two weekends or so ago.
Little dude is 100% soft plastics and lures now, no more bait. Big dude is mostly Fly rod now, no conventional gear.

Boat, Camp Site, and some Free Beer we netted floating around the bay lol.

This one was a quick Youth Weekend duck hunting trip, we dragged the kayaks along since we'd be down anyway. Nothing like driving 3 hours to watch the kid shoot some ducks and catch a few fish just to turn around and drive 3 hours home. Big dude is too old for Youth weekend now, so he waited in the truck. Feels weird man.

The boys yakking.


I ended up paddling back and forth helping them out, but I did manage to pull in a pretty nice Speckled Trout in between rigging the boys up. She swallowed my Hackberry Hustler deep down into her belly so she ended up in my cooler with "Medium's" ducks.

[crunchnflex]

Nice catch!

[crunchnflex]

Best catch of them all!

The BEAST!

LOL yeah I think there's a consumption advisory for those.
Over the next hour or so we ended up netting 7 Milky Beasts, 4 diet Mountain Dew, 1 HEB vanilla Cola, and 1 water bottle. I never saw any boats really nearby, never saw an ice chest floating around, and pretty sure nobody sunk out near us or we would have heard some commotion because it was super calm and quiet out there. I'm guessing somebody lost a chest probably the day before and didn't realize it.

I've got some GREAT pictures from my last camping/surf fishing trip. As soon as I hit 50 posts, I'll hit them up. Let me put it this way..we stopped counting oversized Redfish at 30, and ended up with 3 sharks from 5-6.5' long.

Soon as I hit 50, I'll post them up.
