Fishing talk 101

[honda300EXtreme]

so how has everyones season been going?, in a few short months it will be over

i have to say my catch of the season was a 19'' rainbow trout, (pretty big for PA)

other than that i can honestly say this has been my best season by far. this month alone i have caught gar, drum, trout, cat fish, wallie, sauger, all out of the same area!


so share this years stories with us,

This season was bad luck for me. I brought a Shimano Spirex 2500re for 70 bucks. Brought an Ugly Stick, broke that, lost a bunch of Repalas and other lures. Brought a Berkly Lighting Rod which my friend decided to closed my tailgate with the tip of the pole in it. The fishing wasn't so great. Last year was amazing.This year I caught no trout, but some nice bass and I caught my first cat fish last weekend.

Huge! I was fishing off the shore of a huge lake. First time I ever fished there. I was catching little small mouths for a while then I cast out and I thought I was stuck on a rock. Then BAM! My line goes out like a ****er. She was about two and a half feet to three feet long. Huge cat fish! How are you suppose to grab its mouth to get the hook out? Carefully?

It's not the whiskers that get ya, it's their top and side fins. If you feel em, they have a barb/sharp bone in the front of them. I got caught on them twice this year and man they get ya good!

My two biggest cats this year were 15 and 13 pounds. They put up a hell of a fight.
