The fishing is always FANTASTIC... though sometimes the catching is not so good.

Fonsie, that sunfish that you have in your hand is one of my favorite fish to eat. I would just assume take a stringer full of them home as just about any other kind of fish.

I fish, therefore I am........
I need a powered ice auger now. I threw away my hand auger. Then I won't have to look for open water in the winter.

Yes, I love to eat a few Bluegills when I can. The problem is finding the 9" ones that are worth cleaning.

can't do a video, but here's a picture of the burping bass. The idea is when you test cast a fishing rod with a weighted plug into the basses open mouth. Then the tongue flips up, and the bass gives an audible loud "BURP"! lol.
The dog thinks it's pretty cool.

lol..too cute. I have a mounted fish on my livingroom wall and, no, I didn't catch it unless you consider it as one of those wonderful things the previous owners left behind in the basement as catching the one that almost got away. As soon as I saw it, I KNEW it had to be prominently displayed in my livingroom Anyway, my kitties like to chew the fins lol It has sharp teeth, so I don't think they will put their little heads in his mouth any time soon

We love our gills too.We have a fisk fry once a week with them. During spawning season we have fresh fish a couple times a week, cause it's nice to set the fryer outside on the deck and fry fish, frys and a number of cold beers.
Store bought fish don't taste good. Catch and release, what's that?

Hey rh-have you ever eaten walleye? Now don't get me wrong, bluegill are fine, crappie too, but they can't begin to compare with walleye or perch IMO. Also If you want a big fish fry you're gonna clean two or three dozen bluegill whereas you can get the same amount of fish to fry by cleaning a half dozen decent eyes!

I've been experimenting with fly fishing lately. It's enjoyable. I've mostly caught bluegill,smallmouth,crappie & perch. A lot of them have been released because they were too small, but I did catch a 15lb drum on 7lb tackle that was exciteing. I'm still an absolute beginner, but it's interesting. We don't have any trout streams in OK, but I'd like to fish one.

A friend at work bought 6 bobbers that when a fish pulls on your line, they sing a little song!!! His son took them from here in MO. and went fishing in Mich. They all cracked in the cold!!! My friend hadn't used them one time and payed so much for them, he wouldn't tell me the cost. Now it is warming up and we are going fishing without the Singing Bobbers, boy is he mad at his kid!

don't get near enough time fishin'! knew i had found the right one when she could bait her own hook. muskie from a canoe is a bit too exciting though! thankfully the line breaks before the canoe goes down! bigger boat and heavier line next time.
