The everything fishing thread

[rod]

Its funny how when I was working I lived for the weekends and vacations to go fishing. I can't count the number of times we went to Canada for a week just to fish. I loved every minute of it. It didn't bother me to sit in a boat all day long. All my friends fished and we would have a blast drinking and fishing and fishing and drinking. Now days if I get out twice a summer its a big thing-- and never in the winter for the last 4 or 5 years. Sad. Nobody I know fishes much anymore. They all sold their boats and fish houses. If it wasn't for the grandkids I probably wouldn't fish at all.

That's all we did-walleye fish. We had some amazingly successful trips. To the point where we found walleye fishing in Mn. boring. (and we have some of the best walleye fishing in the USA within 30 miles of me).

You can fly fish for just about anything.

The cold water firms up the flesh and improves the taste.

Jigs in the buckbrush. And if I had to guess just from fishing that lake and fishing with them, chartreuse jig head and a Bobby garland electric chicken shad or a red and white tube

This is his first year as a business and this is killing him. I guess it’s a rule you can’t have more than 2 people on a boat?? Wtf. He hasn’t had a client for weeks and this is the biggest money time of the year for those guys.


But, I’ve never done it. It looks like a giant mess lmao
