The Fish Thread

[smokajoe]

I once went to alaska on a cruise and caught a 45 pound halibut! turned some 20 odd pounds of filets!

I fished on the White river for trout a couple weeks ago & caught a largemouth bass & two perch.
Thats a first (I've always only caught Browns, Rainbows & Cutt's), but with all the water (flooding) the river was really warm & these fish had apparently been ejected over the dam. Bet that surprised them !
As the river cools down again they will have to move south to stay alive though.
Nice fish my friend.

i always find bas ina river very odd. our river is mostly salmon, trouts, and steel head and the dreaded sqaw. but i have heard stories of people catching bass out of our river as well.

Mcpurp - thought I'd revive this one for a quick shot of a couple fish. 30 mile 4 wheeler trip (round trip) with some nice Dolly's thrown in for relaxation.
Oh, beer & Bud also (of course !).
And yes, that is a pistol - .500 S & W Mag just because we have really big gophers here.

throw a floating topwater plug. twitch it 3 times then stop and count to 5, then twitch it 3 times and repeat. hold on tight.

There's 7 of our catch for the day. We each caught at least 20 5lb or larger....was perfect conditions except I was even catching cat on fake worms tryin' to get at the bass.

Wish I had some pics of the ones I had mounted. When I was 8 I caught a 6 lb bass and ever since then they've been my passion, but my dog at my sandisk with all my pics and the last time all we caught were cats lol.

 

[mcpurple]

ill have to try that next time i go out, i got a shit ton of gear but only 1 frog for top water action and it seems in summer they love to hit on top. im gonna have to go pick up some new stuff soon.
is theri a plug that you would recommend?

 

[GreatwhiteNorth]

A couple more from last Sunday.

 

[fdd2blk]

don't set the hook until you feel the fish. make sure to take up the slack before your hookset.
