I saw something in the news a couple years ago where a cal. town did the same thing. Killing off 20 to 50 poumd pike because they were depleting the trout population. Bottom line,,,if they had any common since, the town would have realised that people from the mid-west would have "vacationed" for one or two weeks there for the experience of catchin those pike. Bottom line... idiots don't see the financial advantiges of offering a chance of following a dream that increased local inome.

Zerro impression!

Let's see... :-/...sitting in a boat with my ankle wrapped or sitting in front of the computer. :-/ I've had surgery on both feet and still managed to fish.

They get you a YoNet yet?

;D ;D have to agree with that!

;D Nice catch. I tried to enhance your photos for you but they were linked together so I couldn't do seperate enhancements. Sorry :'(

Use a #8 hook in the tail of you grub. If they short bite, they'll get hooked on the small hook and wont feel it when they bite.

If you leave them in a plastic bag and blow the bag up with oxygen..put them in your cooler or baitwell/livewell..they will last 8 hours.

Yo roadwarrior If I don't talk, can I fish with yall? ;D

I see two draw backs to fishin alone. :'( No one to share the memories of the trip with and no one to Get The Net. Started taking pictures which helped the first problem. Got a folding net that opens with one hand to solve the second problem. Picture of a friend using my net.

Yo Guys....thanks for he replies. :exclamation

What do you use for net webbing? Rubber...Rubber coated....bonded nylon Also what size mesh. 2", 1.5" , or what?

One man's junk is another man's treasure. I've never seen this on TV but have used it successfully for 40 years. Would hate to think I've been doing something wrong for that long. ;D

Matt 5.0 Now either that's horsen or that's a superbass. ;D ;D

Cigarlover Couldn't see your avatar very well. Thought I'd use it to practice posting pictures. Hope you don't mind.

MrTwister was great "in the day". but the sented grubbs work much better.

The troll and gun tactic is used at times on areas you don't know and allows you to find productive spots. Then return to those spots to "really fish them". sounds like the boater forgot the second half. ;D

My Dad taught me that when you see them start to the surface to jump, put the pole in the water. It shortens up free line between the fish and the water and keeps them from shaking loose.

Not on purpose....leaned out to retrieve the broken line as my partner was leaning over to see what I was doing.....speed boat wake hit and we both ended up in the drink. :-[
