Gone Fishin'?

I do. Fresh water. I've been carping quite a few times. Not big on lures, I go old school and get nite-crawlers from the back yard. Catfish are fun. They like hotdogs. Cornmeal or plain white bread seems to work for the carp. Have also caught snapper turtles and eels. As a kid, we would spear fish carp in the river with a row boat and a coleman lantern. Also ran stringers across the water with various baits and would reel in some interesting things in the morning. I went snag fishing for Salmon twice with my older brother years back, but they tell me you can get arrested for that now. I'm going to drown some worms this weekend, JL.
Oh yah. Get'n ready for a week at a Lake in the Sierras (Shaver) 6 or 8 of us have been going for about 8 years now. Troll for Kokanee & Trout, and the occasional small mouth Bass. Lures, or worms on flashers. A guyz only deal. Lots'o fun, much beer'n BS'n.
A Bad day fishing.. Is Better than ANY.. Good day at work.

I love catfish'n but do a little fishing for anything else too. Been so cold up here that the lakes up in northern Minnesota are still frozen and opener is next weekend. Never heard of ice fishing opening weekend before.

I caught too many of these to count during this winter. Now that it is warming up the speckled trout (second pic) are back and it will be time to rip them out in the late evening with top water lures. Once I get the baitwell pump plumbing repaired the boat will be back in the water. If I put it in now I will initiate flooding.
