Other than black bass, what do like to fish for the most?

Featured Replies

I would have to say anything in the bream or cichlid family!

Easy to catch and very spunky!

wild trout

flounder

Singlehandedly the Peacock bass, probably the best freshwater fighter out there, too bad they don't live in cooled water temps though, so everyone could experience them as well.

Perch and crappie for me, but I have to drive quite a ways to get to some. :-/

Trout.

Fresh: smallies & peacocks

Salt: tarpon & snook

If I still lived in South Florida, largemouth fishing would probably account for about 5% of my fishing as opposed to 95% up here in the state I hate from November to February.

Muskie is what I chase when im not Bassin.

How's that peacock population doing down there.

It's a tie between bluegill on a flyrod and rock bass (goggle eye) out of the river.  Or maybe crappie!  Or white bass.  Arghhhhh!!!  Too many choices!  Too little time!

Crappie and gills on ultra lite. Nothing fights like a 1lb+ gill. They're just insane. If they could breed 5lb gills that would be awesome.

Saltwater - bluefish just for the fight, especially the little "snapper" blues on light saltwater spinning gear.

Crappie, when it's time to get a proper munch on.

I like to fish for largemouth #1, but also spend a lot of time fishing for stripers, channel cats and flathead cats. Caught a 25# flathead last year on a medium action baitcasting rig. WOW. Took about 20 minutes to boat it.     Happy fishing.

My Fishing Season.

Jan. ice fish walleye and some lake trout/white fish. On Warmer days I Steelhead Northshore of Lake Ont.

Feb-March More Steelheading

April Perch and Crappie Mostly catch and eat.

May - June walleye popping bucktails C&R and some tournaments

      Northern Pike Tournaments this is something new for me.

July - Sept Bass tournaments a good mixture of Largies and Smallies.

Oct. - Dec. Perch C&E Walleye and Steelheading some bass fishing.

Thats about my deal for the last 30 years I throw in Carb fishing and bullheads (small cats) and anyting else theres time for.

Now my Fav. is the next season so that would be ice fishing for walleye but the stealies are going good.

i like to catch white perch in the lagoons around my town since i live near barnegat bay. you never know what you'll pull up when you fish brackish water. the pic is a stock photo, my pics are stored in my laptop and can't get a connection right now. they are little but they fight hard, and if u find one you've found them all.

Bream - Bluegill, Panfish, Sunfish, etc. They are little but mighty for their size.

I've been thinking about winter Striper fishing here at night but I can't find anybody who'll bear the cold night temps with me on Lake Norman. I really don't like going out in my boat at night alone. I caught a couple this year during the day and Man, what a fight. :D

Love to chase bream with my 6yr old daughter.  I have a 1yr. old waitin for me at home now too and shell be getting her first trip this coming spring!  I sure can't wait!!!  Can't beat a can o' worms, a lil ultralight, and my lil girls to keep me smilin!

I'm a big fan of Sauger and Crappie, both are fun to catch and can usually be found from the shore when it is to cold for me to chase bass.

I bass fish exclusivly from April to November. In the winter I hit the ice for some bluegills

White bass is another great fish to catch.

Muskie as well.

Crappie, fly fishing for trout, stripers, and smallmouth. Crappie are a blast because if you catch one, you'll usually catch alot more.

Everything! We sometimes fish with live shad, cut bait and nightcrawlers in a channel off of the Mississippi and we catch a little bit of everything that swims...Usually hoping for big cats, but enjoy catching white bass, bowfin, largemouth, smallmouth, spots, carp, gar, drum, etc...
