I can almost taste it. I need to figure out how to lose my job and get unemployment so I can go fishing daily for a few months. It's hard to even stay out until sunset without sleeping through my alarm the next morning.

I kinda agree with anon here >>844663

Depending on your fishin holes, you may want to go a little heavier on the line. Idk if it's just me, but going heavier with the line on casting reels doesn't seem to impact casting distance nearly as much as with spinning reels.

If you aren't going to be hooking into lilly pads a ton, 15lb will be fine.

I'm hitting a lake Saturday that I've caught bass, pickerel and plenty of panfish in before. I just checked online and apparently there are brown bull cats as well. I'm taking the canoe out so I can hit the bottom in the middle of the lake. If I'm trying to get cats on the bottom, am I better off with nightcrawlers or chicken liver?

I have always done really well with nightcrawlers when going for bullhead. Plus you will get the occaisional bass or something else with nightcrawlers on the bottom. But I never did chicken livers for bullhead so not sure.

>>844671
40lb+ is starting to get up there unless it's a setup mainly for heavy cover. 20lb casts 1/4oz lures really well, but 30lb seems more suited for stuff >1/4oz. Really depends on his fishin holes but he could def go heavier than 15lb. I do like the 15lb braid on my medium spinning combo however since it will still cast 1/8oz lures and rip through weeds well.

Another ANON from the thread before this. I said I had 60 bucks for a new rod and reel combo, went with the abu Pepsi said was good, mainly because it had the most bearings... BEARINGS R GOOD!

but It cost me 40 dollars instead of 30, and I wasn't getting it online as I NEEDED a reel NOW.

spooled it up with my standard 12lb triline mono GREEN of course.

also got a shakespeare excursion rod, 7 foot, medium action, online reviews kinda scare me, I'm expecting it to break now. but the reel being 40 bucks I couldn't go half and half on rod/reel. so I guess im stuck with a 20 dollar rod until it breaks.. HOPEFULLY NOT. My other shakespeare rod I had for over 10 years and only broke because an SUV pulled too far up onto me, and snapped off the tip in his radiator. fucking spics...

OF course I went over 60 dollars because I needed new watermelon 6" flukes, and I bought some hooks.. and 1 top water popper [my only one I own now] and a H2O swim bait that I just cant wait to try! and some boring jump rings.

that's it. Might go fishing tomorrow. depends, doc has me on some different laxatives now...

I live in Rhode Island (that's the one that's literally known as the Ocean State, in case you didn't know) and 99% of the fishing I do is freshwater. Bodies of freshwater are just more relaxing and I like their aesthetic more. It's also more fun to catch small fish on a small rod, it takes finesse. This is coming from someone who's gone deep sea fishing and has caught sharks bigger than I am, and I'm a fully grown man who weightlifts, so I'm by no means small. My best friend's dad growing up also had a boat that we went out on to go for stripers, bluefish and fluke.

Saltwater is for dorks, Pepsi did nothing wrong. Get over it.

The one I played with on display Wasnt as noisy as I remember after I took mine out of the box and gave it a spin.. I did switch the handle to the right side of the reel.. Idk why it sounds like its making noise on the inside. Might crack it open tomorrow. And just stuff some reel butter on all its surfaces and see if it shuts up more. I mean its not TERRIBLE but its noticeably enough to be kinda annoying considering its a new reel.

Typical divisional social propaganda. You try to make a side to be on so you can hate others that are not on your side as well as bring others to your side to prevent your own cognitive dissonance. The truth of the matter is that you are using "divide and conquer" tactics you learned from entertainment propaganda meant to keep the masses off balance and disorganized.

There are no "sides" to be on. Stop making up problems where none exist.

>is scenting plastic a meme

It is for those lures that aren't very good or the angler is reeling in too slowly. Basically, the lure isn't triggering the instinct for a quick hard strike and instead the fish is following or staring at the lure.

Scent isn't needed if the lure is properly designed and the angler is using it properly. There's also no scientific evidence that scented lures work better specifically because they are scented. It is much like fish and chicken shaped cat food. It isn't for the cat, it is for the owner to look at. Scented lures are much the same.

Normally, the bobber is in the water. Using this method the bobber is attached to the line between two of the pole eyes. The wire hook on the bobber is turned so it can't close and the line flows freely through it.

Need some pointers on trout fishing

My state has a list of streams in a pdf and ranks it either "Trout Available Only During
Stocking Period" vs "Trout Available During Entire
Legal Fishing Season"

Im guessing since they last stocked it in april, and later upcoming this fall, that it's not the "stocking period" So what does this mean? The hatchery stocked trout are all gone and they dont survive the summer? While the wild trout streams are fished year round?

Actually I put a loop in it with it fully closed so I can have my reel on freespool, that way if a big fish grabs it and runs the bobber pops free and the fish gets all the line to run with instead of taking the rod with it (I've had it happen)

Awesome. Even better idea. I was thinking what'd happen when I went to set the line and the bobber wrapped around the pole about 4 times. This prevents that problem.

Just pop it off before you set the hook; otherwise the bobber will fly anywhere from 5 to 15 feet away in some random direction and either get lost in the grass or brush or float away in the water

When you guys fish for cats with dropshot rigs, do you just use a regular palomar knot with the hook directly on the line and the sinker underneath it, or do you have a loop so the hook is spaced off the line a bit?

You only reel in when you have a fish on. Which by your logic would be rather tiresome. If you get a bite, I suggest cutting your line.

Only if you really have trouble getting them out. I never do, bass have thin enough lips where it isn't an issue, sneks are ded anyway, and Mayans and Bluegill are easy enough to unhook anyway.

Maybe live bait it would be more beneficial because it is easier to hook them deep. But there is the trade-off of losing the occaisional fish you would've landed with a barb.

That won't work. What if a pesky bluegill bites it while I'm taking a nap and swallows it? How the hell do I get it out then?

Honestly what I did years ago was modify my rod so that all the eyes were razor sharp on the inside where the line runs through. Now, as soon as something applies pressure to the line, it breaks, and I don't have to deal with it. I did that about 2 years ago and I've never looked back. I've never enjoyed fishing more in my life.

I guess if you could get the bait 6" off the bottom and out of any mud or vegetation, it could be an easy target. That's why I run my weights close to 2' up the line from the bait so it doesn't get buried in whatever silt or weeds are down there.

If you're in a bonefish blitz or similar crushed barbs on J hooks are beneficial because you can get the fish off and the lure back in the water faster
If you're using tiny flies (size 16 and smaller) barbless makes it easier to get hooks out

I caught a snek a month or two back on my Mepps Agila #4 Snek Sleyer with the brown skirt and pink blade and this fucker got hooked directly through the center of the tonge. That fucking hook was not coming out. I waited to get the lure out until after I killed it because I had to pretty much rip apart its jaw to get my lure back. Ended up bending the hook too.

That Mepps is a champ. The skirt is torn up from snek teeth, the hook is bent, the paint on the blade is scraped up, and I'm pretty sure there is still a scale from a snek stuck on one of the hooks.

I carry kelly foreceps and needle nose pliers, both 8" long. I never have trouble getting hooks loose, even trebles in small sunfish throats. I also don't screw up the fish with these.I grab the hook, push it further into the fish mouth and towards the front of the hook. That way the barb more easily clears the hole the hook made. You can't do that very well with your fingers half the time.

So i went catfishing a week ago (channels) and i seemed to have a problem hooking the things as i caught one fish with 5 or 6 missed bites by the end of the night. I only caught the one because he swallowed the hook.

I was running two poles, I was holding one with a size 6 treble
and some punch bait and had another with a 2/0 octopus circle with some cut bait and a bell on the rod tip.

Both rods had 1oz egg sinkers and a carolina keeper in place of a swivel.

They would hit with a single small tap, but then nothing. I tried doing a 2-5 second count after this to set the hook on the pole i was holding, but they were gone.

The circle hook rod would get that same tap, and i know your supposed to let them run with it, but there was no activity after the initial tap. I tried to reel down on them, but there was only one instance where i think a fish actually had it but i think maybe i didn't apply enough pressure or something.

After thinking about it since my best guesses are too much weight, too small a circle hook, maybe using a j or kahle hook instead and holding both rods. Also thinking i should have set the hook as soon as i felt the tap.

Im going to go back out tomorrow night after work.

Any advice/ideas?

They need oxygen to be kept alive. I don't know how much water you're putting them in or how many there will be, and what rate they will die, but an air pump like the kind you'd use in a fish tank will keep them alive. The problem is that they usually need to be plugged in, and unless you head down to Pimp My Ride I don't think you'll find one with a car adapter.

>2/0 octopus circle with some cut bait

Your bait is probably fouling the hook. 2/0 is way too fucking small. You need 7/0 or 8/0 for that style of hook. The opening between the hook point and the shaft needs to be 100% clear at all times, needs to be as wide as possible, and you need to hook the bait diagonally so it can't flip up and close that gap. The bait must rest in the very bottom U section of the hook, not on the shaft.

Circle hooks are far different than J hooks. You can hook a fish anywhere with a J hook, but a circle hook is designed specially for hooking the fish in the corner of the mouth. They also must be tied on the line using a snell knot. That is important.

As far as setting the hook goes, that depends on the size of your bait and target fish mouth size. If it is a small enough bait and a large enough mouth, they will "inhale" it in one gulp. You have runners and spitters. The latter will gulp and spit almost instantly, that's the single tap you get. You don't want those. You want a runner. Let the line freely spool out. When there's a hit, let the fish take it for about 8-10 feet of line (be patient.) Then lock the line, pull hard, and get some backwards running space of about 5-10 feet. You want to prevent slack line as much as possible.

Good luck.

You'll need to keep them in bags/buckets with water from their original home. Once you get to your destination you need to put the container(s) into the water so that it will slowly reach the same temperature as the destination water. After 20-30 mins you can start exchanging the water in the container(s) with the destination water. Treat the process the same as bringing new fish home to your aquarium.

I had a feeling the hooks were too small, but my friend insisted they worked for him

I do actually have some 5/0 and 7/0 hooks, but i forgot them at home. I also have some 3/0 kahles but ive never tried them.

I was aware of how to hook it properly and of the Snell knot, so i guess the hooks were probably too small then.

It also seemed that all the fish that hit that night were spitters though, so what should i do when they are biting like that?

Thanks for the help by the way

How do I successfully fish from the shore? I can usually catch something if I'm fishing from a boat, but I get skunked 4/5 times fishing from the shore. When I do catch something, it's usually a tiny sunfish or baby bass.

you generally wont have much luck getting bigger bass from shore unless it's a tiny pond.

Try for some catfish, it's a lot easier to get big ones from shore.

it depends on how deep the river is & how fast it's moving. What state are you in and what river?

I'm in florida so I fish the Suwannee and it's just about impossible to fish for anything other than catfish from the bank. If you're somewhere that has trout (looks like you are) you could probably do pretty good walking down the bank throwing a spoon upstream or something.

I don't really notice a difference in bites or action, but especially if I'm casting with wind it seems like the line gets tangled in the blade more when I have a snap swivel on.

Need a bit of advice if anyone's interested.A bit of info if you need to know anything.

The area I live has a river that reaches about 8ft deep in the middle, and when my grandfather was still alive, he used to pull walleye out of there like it was going out of style. Now, I went out there for the last 3 weeks at 5:30A.m to 8:00A.m and then usually head back from 8 to 11p.m like what we used to. The problem is, I've used just about anything and everything imaginable for walleye, from crank baits, live, fake, rattles, grubs ect. But I can not get a single bite to save my own ass, anyone have any sort of advice on lures/baits to use and what not to use?

Same anon. Glad to read someone likes the idea too. The split rings I have are "#3 Heavy Duty". Here's a photo of their size.

The distance from the edge of the spoon to the edge of the drilled hole is the biggest factor of the ring size you can use. If the distance is too wide, you'll stretch out your split ring (like my first spoon) or not be able to fit it on. You can get rather close to the edge with the drilled hole. I recommend using a center punch to help lock in the drill bit tip. Also, I use a tiny drop of oil where the whole goes when drilling.

You ever do the river rigs with small shiners?

I don't have a ton of experience fishing rivers, but when I was younger almost every weeknd we would go out for walleye and whatever else would bite. We used these river rigs that were like pic related crossed with a Lindy Rig. They had 2 or 3 hooks on them and blades and beads. Throw a minnow on each hook and wait. Never failed.

I guess otherwise with lures just follow the basic rules of river fishing and find a good spot. Cast upstream, find the spots with little to no current and go along the edge of those.

I bent one ring all to hell trying to get it on. They're about 3/16ths of an inch so they're just too damn small. I should've brought along a hook and spoon to get the proportions right. Only $2.50 spent/lost to the cause which is still less than one spoon.

And I've got about 30 spoon...cups I'd guess you'd call them....left over from making spoon rings out of the handles so no cost there. This is a no brainer for me.

Nice. I'll have tons of spoon handle parts left over after this, but I'll be using those to make more lures. I'm also going to test out splitting the spoon itself in half length ways (red dots in pic) to make 2 lures. I want to see what kind of cast and action those will have. If that works well then 1 spoon can make 4 lures.

Most of the cheaper baitcaster from reputable brands aren't bad at all. They aren't as smooth as the 28 bearing $450 model and may not have all the bells and whistles but they won't fall apart on you.

Also, these companies often use very similar designs across the whole price range. The extra price comes from materials when you go from plastic to CNC'd aluminum to carbon fiber.

I already have one. It is too tiny to hold large fish through the winter. Only sunfish and turtles survive from year to year. A deeper pond can't be made due to how the land is, for under $20k. Mine was one that would have cost $8k but I got a discount for only $5k because it wouldn't fill up correctly. It took about 6 years to stop being a mud hole. If I'm lucky, it can be dredged to be deeper for "cheap". Right now it is only like 2.5-3 feet deep.

Something similar happened in my town about 5 years ago. This one pond was always glistening clean water and then one year there was suddenly shitloads of algae and vegetation that creates this siffocating mat on the water surface. It gets so bad that by July you can't see any of the surface at all from shore to shore. They still haven't totally figured it out either.

There's a road that separates this pond from a smaller one with a culvert that passes water from small pond -> big pond (pic is right on top of the culvert), and the small pond (behind the camera) doesn't have any of this shit in it. So the runoff is coming directly into the big pond, and thus not getting upstream into the small pond.

Pic is from google maps but doesn't show the problem nearly as bad as it actually is right now. It looks like you could walk right across it. People don't boat or fish on it anymore because you can't. Nutrients/runoff, or climate change?

No, everything is a steep hillside here and requires way too much fill. Hence the massive expense. Also, since it would be a pond, it has to be dug by someone licensed and have a special permit. That's to ensure it isn't made incorrectly where it would wash out and flood people down stream.

If I could go out and rent a dozer for this I'd have done that 25 years ago.

This must be it. Someone on the lake must have gotten goats or other domesticated landbeast and it's leaching down the banks into the water. I would imagine the EPA would be all over that shit, seeing how closely they monitor construction sites and building permits for impacts of runoff. Hmph.

You need to toss a square bale of hay into the pond to stop that. The bale should decay over a month and the effects last about 6 months. If the bale sinks, pull it out, let it dry then put it back in. Really large ponds need more than 1 bale of hay.

Ackshualy in Texas you can build a pond that holds no more than 200 acre-feet of water without a permit.* So if you were to build roughly a 3x3 acre pond (assuming it's square for simplicity's sake) it would be about 20 feet deep. Seems like a decent pond to me.

*This is an ag exemption so it has to be for ag uses, but you could totally put fish in it.

You can also build a pond using a well that pumps less than 25,000 gallons a day for "domestic use." i.e. You can't charge people to use your pond, or make monies off of it. But that wouldn't be a very big pond.

How do you fish large, wide open lakes without much cover? I just moved to gainesville and am about to hit pic related with the kayak. Should I just paddle out to deep water and throw a jig or something?

I've always fished around the bank and cover but thats in small ponds that are covered in sunken branches and lilly pads. Here, I don't know because I don't have a depth finder.

Points, inlets, dropoffs, weed beds, and othet structure. Always takes a bit to figure out new lakes.

Will bass actually chill in 20'+ deep water? I always fish from shore so I don't know.

I want to get to Lake Okeechobee one day. I guess throughout the entire lake, the average depth is only 8' so there has to be so many spots for bass to chill and still be able to get to them with most lures.

Seems like a load of schidt to me (no pun intended) but it's the gummint doing it. ':|

Fish that point that comes out. Also look at the differences in bottom condition (grassy, tall weeds, rocky, sandy etc.). Another good thing to keep track of with big open bodies is the wind direction. Bass seem to like to stack up towards the shore in which the wind is blowing towards. I'm not sure about this specific body but I know for the ones around me there are several forums that you can find for fishing lakes that will give you some good tips

You ever target specs? I've heard people are pulling 13+ inch fish out of here quite commonly and thought it'd be a good nostalgia blast from when my dad would take me.

And Rooster Tails are fine, but Mepps are superior as far as inline spinners.

Sounds like you just need more time on the lake. I rarely see people on boats fishing in the middle of lakes. They are always closer to shore and running along weeds or other structure. Is there a creek or anything running into or out of the lake? That's normally where I will start at a new lake because there is guaranteed underwater structure.

You can buy just the spinner blades too without getting the whole beetles spin pack. I already have a ton of assorted jigheads and little plastics so I just get the packs of blade or use underspins (on the left). Underspins are great, even Walmart has them.

On a side note, I'm now confused as hell. I thought I had a bunch of gold Beetle Spin type blades. I remember grabbing one out of the box the other day and now I don't know where the rest of them went. Not sure what happened but I need to get another pack of I lost them because for some reason gold blades seem to work better than silver 90% of the time.

I bet Walmart has the Underspins but you just didn't see them. They will come in a little blue package of like 5 or 6 and they normally have 1/16oz and 1/8oz in chartruese with a silver blade. Bass Pro and Dick's have them too, but you normally have to look in the crappie and panfish section and not by the other jigheads and spinners. Bass Pro and Dick's also have the larger 1/4oz white ones but they want like $6ea or something stupid so I refuse to buy them when the 1/8oz ones are $3-$4 for a 6pk.

Pic related is all sorts of fun shit I have to play with on the UL. A lot of it is better for bluegill since most decent sized crappie have no problem taking down 1/4oz lures but depends on the fish and how picky. Those Mayans by me will hit Mepps #3's and some medium Rapalas some days but other days I have to get something tiny for them to show interest.

I posted a pic of the Mini Mites earlier in the thread. You can see a handful of those in the pic on the left. They are incredible for panfish and I can't figure it out.

You are a good person.

I'm sure the Mepps grab bag would be cool. They make all sorts of interesting shit besides Agilas that you don't see much anymore. Lots of it is that old-school stuff that seems to work when all of the fancy swimbaits and cranks are failing.

those rigs are retarded, just a carolina rig with a piece of shrimp/sand flea/cut bait works fine and is way less time consuming to deal with.

The majority of the time I pier/surf fish it's with a carolina rig or free lining.

What do you go for? #00 is tiny, I have a few and barely use them because it's hard to even get action on something that light unless you are just jigging. Larger bluegill and most crappie will still hit #2's fine. I probably have more #3's than anything because they will hook bass well and could take most crappie up north and are good for most sneks down here.

We've used Lindy rigs before, but the main problem is that the river we're on has aggressive carp (I wish I was kidding about this) and they go after everything from leech, plastic baits, minnows ect. How my grandfather and I would usually catch them were with rapalla 7's silver and black and cast them up stream and bring them down river and we'd catch them from ranges of 15-19 inches at least. As for minnows themselves, the stores in the area no longer sell any so I'm s.o.l there

Fucking carp.

You can still do nightcrawlers on the Lindy or River rigs. Get a syringe and blow the worms up with some air first so they float.

Plus pumping air into worms until they assplode is fun. I remember how much fun I had when I discovered that the syringe in my dad's tackle box wasn't just for heroin.

Sounds like scraping the bottom of the trash can for those insulin needles my grandmother uses might have use afterall.

On note of the carp though, If I told you how much money I've lost to them fuckers, You'd call me a dumbshit or cry with me, Even went as far as throwing them in between the rocks on the beach or burying them.

But as for lindy rigging for walleye, are there any recommended lures/baits you could recommend?

I had fun catching small bass on a 1/16 oz. spinnerbait, but I'd mostly use the #1 to catch pan-size fish. I have a light rod and use 6 lbs fluorocarbon so they fit my setup.

>DIP BAIT
I'm a big fan of it. Compared to the bullshit dough bait balls, dip bait is incredible. It's best to buy the dip bait hooks or rigs like in the pic. Nightcrawlers, chicken livers, and any other barel alive bait will work.

>>846289
You could probably just ask your grandma for one.

And idk what else for walleye, I always went with those rigs when fishing somewhere with walleye. I know lots of people will troll deep diving cranks for them. They are just another predator fish so spoons and spinners should work too.

So update, I end up using a leech with this on my first try,a few nibbles here and there and a few sensitive hits I didn't pick up on until too late, but about the last hour before calling it quits, I had one hit and run that fought me for what seemed to last about 30-45 minutes, by the time I got it to the shore I saw it was a dotted brown fish with a hook like jaw, and it had a red side, but end up snapping the line at the last minute, pretty sure it may have been a trout of some sort, but damn am I going to try again later today.

Depends. If they're in a feeding frenzy I use spoolteks, storms, bucktail jigs or any soft plastic. When they're a bit more reserved I'll use a live croaker or pilchard.

You don't even have to go to the pier if you hate the crowd. Snook are cruising the shores all over florida right now. Just wade in the water, bring your bass gear and start casting at dusk.
