Since we really don’t have a dedicate fishing thread, I thought I’d create one for everyone to share thier catches.
So today, I spent a good part of my time fishing at an old spot I haven’t fished in over ten years, and let me tell ya, I gave my old ultra-lite rod a heck of a workout.
In five hours I probably hooked forty plus Bass using the same type of small jig that I used ten years ago. I ended up landing thirty of them and lost a few big ones here and there.
At least it’s good to know that the fish don’t get any smarter over time
Anyhow, if you’re a fishermen and you’ve caught some fish lately, show them off with the rest of us right here on Full30.
Heck, I know I’d like to see your catches, and while you’re at it, tell us what you used and where you caught it.
No trade secrets here
Hopefully I’ll get to learn something new from some of you.
I didn’t hit my fishing hole yesterday, but I still managed to get out shortly after the heavy rain for a little bit at the cat lake and reel this big guy in.
Dang @Wildlife . Save some fish for future generations.
OK, so this brings me to a question. If I were to buy some fishing gear for SHTF, didn’t want to buy every lure out there, what few items or lures would be a good choice to have, if I don’t know where I might be fishing? Most likely fresh water, some river or lake or pond, since I’m no where near the coast.
And what rod and reel would be a good choice? Keep in mind, I know absolutely nothing about fishing. I’m just wanting to increase my prepper items.
Any suggestions? I saw a green frog thing and something yellow. Is there a color I need to look for in lures? Or something shiny? Certain hooks i should get? I will buy a small tackle box and fill with what ever is needed. Also, what about fishing line? What kind/weight? And do people still use those red and white floaty balls?
