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?

In your frigid waters, a belly boat will likely have you buying waders as well, which is going to get expensive (though if you get into fishing in Colorado, you may want waders eventually anyway). I'd look into a kayak over a canoe, unless you're looking to take multiple people fishing with you.

Here's a good place to start:

It will mostly be me and the boy, although I'm sure I'll have to haul the wife around as she suns herself.

If you get a kayak, you can do this:

You don't need anything special to crappie fish, just grab you a few dozen minnows and go get em

The white bass run is on here. Sadly, I'm leaving town for my Spring Break (actually not that sad, since I'm going to Palm Beach).

Also if you are gonna crappie fish get some aberdeen style hooks and a pair of needle nose pliers to put in your pocket...
http://www.basspro.com/Gamakatsu-Cra...ct/15834/55463

Aberdeen hooks have a longer shaft (like me) and it's easier to remove from the fish mouth unless they gut swallow it.

If they have the hook in a vital area and you don't want to keep the fish and he isn't bleeding, cut the line and let the fish go, sometimes they will live.

On days like that I say, "The fishing was great, it's just the catching that didn't go so good."

Yup, My wife is competitive when it comes to fishing, she always wants to catch the biggest or the most and talks trash when she does, I spend most of my time putting her on the spots to catch them...

Thunderstorm rolling thru now so if I had been out there I would be wet

Even more awesome when the big hybrids and full-on stripers start getting mixed in with them.
