Drinking and fishing ???
When we go catfishin at night we will drink from sundown till sun up. someones wife usualy drives us. If we go camping were drinkin beer 24/7 untill it gets to heavy then we switch to rum and cokes for a few hours then its back to beer. as for bass fishing, well i shore fish(no boat) so it kinda hard to keep track of your beer while constantly casting and reeling in. and yes, if someone farts it a good reason to crack open a cold one. ;D

Tube Jigs
i just started using them aswell, and they do catch fish. im usung 4# line on an UL rod, 1/32 to 1/8oz tube weight depending on the insanity of the wind. sometimes i just real em in, othertimes let em sink, wait a bit and pop it up let is sink and so on. then you can jig it, but my favorite, is to put a little beatle spinner spin on it.

Public Perception of Fishing
I live in kansas, so i have yet to run into anyone who has questioned fishing. "i dont like fishing" "fishing is boring" is about all you get.

Fish Finder for Bank Fishers
man if i had the money!!!!! a good remote controlled boat the Norcross Hawkeye FF3355P 50yrds of cable to extend its reach. wait!!! i seen this in wireless with gps and an awesome sonar, remote control boat that comes back if it goes out of range, and when the battery is dieing. and you can hook your line to it to drop it into those hard to get to holes. oh and it comes with its own laptop to view all the readings on. its currently $7000 but in 10yrs it will be cheaper. ;D i kinda want the humming bird, but no one got me it for x-mas :'(

Solo or group fishing -- your preference
i had to actualy think about this one. Catfishing is easy, i like the company, throw the bait in toss a few beers down, mindless chatter. Thats fun. Bass fishing is different, ive fished with the wife and tell her how far away she has to be for us both to toss lures out without hitting each other. thats actually peaceful (simple questions and she is quit) yep would have to say when throwing lures i gotta concentrate. i guess as a shore fisherman it depends on what im fishing for, and what im fishing with.

I spent last night crying
i spent last night crying :'( as a blizzard blew threw my city and dropped 2" of sleet and 6" of snow on my city. I watched as steam rolled off my pond. just 2 weeks ago it was 80*. will this effect the bass from spawning? i had caught a few pregnant bass last week.

spring fishing from shore.
I live in a condo with a pretty good size sand pit in the back, its full of bass. So far ive had one realy good day, about 9 bass on a 1 1/2" tube and a beatle spin. but for the last week i bearly manage one bite a day. Need suggestion on what to use. the conditions: from the shore, water is pretty clear can see about 3-5' out, anything that touches the bottom will almost instantly be covered in allgie(its starting to break up) and i live in kansas so wind is normaly about 20mph with 40-50 mph guests ;D any suggestions on a lure to use? also is it better to real in with the waves or against them?
-
What are you REALLY good at ? (OK to brag here ;-)
I have mastered the art of catfish angling. toss the line in the water sit back and start pounding down the cold beer. (shore fisherman ofcourse) catching the fish is another story but i got the angling part down pat. ;D now im workin on holding onto a my beer in one hand while lure fishing for bass, without spilling my beer. this one will takes some serius practice to master.

farm pond fishing this time of year?
I was out sunday when it was warm and the sun was out, cought 7 bass and 2 bluegill, one bluegill was 1.5lb, the bass were small, but i was using a small tube. This was on the pond out back of my condo, the problem with the senkos or anything that touches the botton will instantly be covered in algae.

Ipods? Yes or no?
I got a little tiny radio ill turn to talk radio or npr while fishin, but i cant do headphones, i get paranoid that someone or somethin is creeping up on me >

Economy vs Bassfishing
Ok gettin laid off, but bait monkey is gonna come out one last time for a few things(trebbles hooks, regualer hooks, line, and live bait through my LONG state paid vacation) and just got with the tax lady, and i might have a chance at getting a jon boat with a trolling motor on it for $100 and it comes with the trailer so i might be gettin my boat anyways, but if not.......... IF WE WANT TO FISH, WE WILL FISH

Fishing jerks
Alot of the public places i fish around town are usualy crowded. I just walk up, say "Hi how the fish bittin today?" "mind if i fish this area?" Never had anyone say no, and usualy end up BSin with the guy for a few hours while fishin. ive learned were alot of good holes are, and as long as the conversation stays away from politics its pretty plesent.
