Fishing Pics ... post your most recent.

Rules? What rules? I release everything that I catch. The only time anything went into my live well was when I was doing tournaments and then after weigh-in they were released. Never lost a fish.


Up north, the best days to catch a walleye are usually cold, wet, windy - just yucky weather to be out on a boat. That's the "rules" to which I was referring, tongue in cheek.

You look like you caught yours on a pretty nice day to be out! :D
 
Picked up this brown and lost a better one. Tough fishing today

This was a first for me. Caught 4 different types of wild trout on one stream this after noon. 4 you say?

Rainbow.

Brown + brook = Tiger trout This is about the 5th tiger I have caught but it’s been 20 years or so since the last one I caught. This makes the third stream I’ve caught one in.

Not mine but I helped land it. Just got back from fishing on Kiawah Island, SC. Our host caught this 36" Redfish but it wasn't easy. We had an 8' gator who wanted it just as bad as he did. Every time the fish would surface and splash the gator would head for it. He had to open the bail and let the fish escape once. Finally got it worked down the dock enough away from the gator that we were able to get it into the net and up on the dock.

I had previously caught a 17" one and had to snatch it from the gators jaws. It lunged at my fish but just as it snapped it jaws shut I was able to lift it up out of the water so that it could live another day. We catch and release using artificial lures. Dodging the gators makes things really exciting.

Don't know how you catch & release guys do it. I like to eat 'em.
That’s easy when you only catch them about 4-5 inches long. I like crappie and catfish a lot but don’t usually bother keeping or cleaning them and my wife only eats fish shell fish.

As far as the Redfish go, they are a slot fish. You can legally only keep them between 15 to 23 inches. We like to catch the big ones because of the fight. Now a trout or flounder is a different story. Some of them get eaten.

Puppy drum eat better than a flunder or a trout. Not saying I have had it but old drum stew is a delight.
 
Went down to Oriental yesterday to try my hand at fishing for Old Drum. Wind blew for the first half of the day so I hid in a creek. While fishing the creek, I had this young otter come check me out. He was not happy I was there and swam all around me making noises.

Wind laid in the afternoon and I found bait balls all over but had only 1 hookup that pulled off after taking a 150yds of line.

Caught this cat Friday night at Jordan after work. My buddy caught two little ones and I also caught a decent crappie and perch. Hoping to get out a few more times before the weather really breaks.

I was up in Cape Cod the last two weeks. Hoping to hook up with some monster fall run Stripers.

Didn't happen .


Though I did land a couple 20-22"ers and had a solid hook up on one of my homemade lures. (Top water)
The other 2 on hairaisers.
Maybe got in 4 hrs of fishing in those 2 weeks.

Trout were tight lipped Yesterday. My favorite brown trout stream only produced one small brown. Hit the DH and picked up a rainbow. Nice day in the mountains though.

Oak island, hit the surf. Caught like 10 different species, including a nice ~12" Trout. No pics ,but even before that, my 4 year old caught this one, about 10". He was trying a delayed retrieval of a double bottom rig, because that's what he wanted to do. Damn if he didn't hook up.

That is literally the picture you get when you buy a picture frame............
 
My Webster Springs, WV annual hunting/fishing trip over Thanksgiving was cancelled recently.

I booked a campsite at Stone Mountain State Park for a week of fly fishing and zero cell phone signal.

Have had mixed success there over the years. I mostly fish nymphs, but am open to any Jedi mind tricks.

What flies do you throw there?

Apprish.

Last Tue I went up to Edenton with a friend to chase some stripers. We almost had a 3 person limit on a short morning trip. Today the wind was low so I ran down to MHC and managed to pickup a limit of trout. The striper was turned into stew this past Sunday and the trout will make two dinners, probably one dinner of blackened trout with cheese grits and the other a fish fry.
