FullClip Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Mybuddy took this one morning a few years ago as he trolled over. When I'm home and the lake ain't frozen, I'm in the boat almost every day. Small mouthsmostly but thow the boat on the trailer and hit the landlocked salmon lakes in the spring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunndeal Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) Pacific Northwest here. I fish mostly for salmon and steelhead with an annual trip to the Gulf of California. Edited July 1, 2018 by dunndeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PNWguy Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Freshwater fish in Idaho for everything except Sturgeon. I bought a little pontoon raft thingy and it is the greatest thing since sliced bread for river and small lake fishing. $300 from Costco 5 years ago and still holding up. Went up and fished the Couer D'Alene river in North Idaho a couple of weeks ago for catch and release Cutthroat trout. I fish for the fun and relaxation. There are better places for bigger fish much closer to me, but there is no other river more clear, pristine, and beautiful... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Stick Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Mostly freshwater fly fishing for me. Brook trout, Rainbow trout, Lake trout and landlocked salmon in New York's Adirondack mountains. This is a King salmon caught in the Salmon River where it runs through Pulaski, NY. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collim1 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Bass fisherman here. Did the weekend and Tuesday evening pot tournaments and local bass club thing for several years. Burned out on it fishing at that level. It became work instead of a fun hobby and haven’t fished as much since. My boy is almost old enough to start teaching him the basics and I’m planning to get back into it soon, but at a much more leisurely pace. I got tired of spending the money pulling a boat all around the state and paying into tourny’s that I never won. But on the other I got to fish some of the best bass lakes in the country and learn from some very knowledgeable guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWARREN123 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Jeez, due to bad left shoulder and neck I haven't been able to go much this year. Need to at least get out and just look at some water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeIsuzu Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 After living in SoCal since June 1961 until November 2011, I fished The High Sierras, all of SoCal shoreline in my 52" Grady White out of Dana and my 38' out of Newport Dunes. I've never used bait - won't do it and I only throw hardware - spoons, shrimp flies (with no bait) and for all kinds of bass (stripers, large and small mouths) in SoCal impounds and rivers and streams - I am now living in Montana where so far I've only been exposed to trout. Now - don't get me wrong - there is some finesse involved, but I'd rather throw a Baby Torpedo or a Rattletrap or a Jerkbait on the surface instead of tossing hardware at trout. The closest I get to bait is Uncle Josh's pork, but they don't work in Montana at all. I'd love to find some new Crappie-John's but since he died, I guess that's outta the question. Oh well...... anybody got any they'd like to get rid of? I'm fishing outta a 17'6" single person, river canoe this year - and I like it a lot. I didn't get to float it as much as I wanted this past summer - and it's now almost freezing and another canoe season is gone bye bye. Let's pray for an Indian Summer in the low to mid 90F temps! I've decided that I'm saving fly fishing for when I cannot catch fish any more. It'll be a break from actually catching and then taking fish off the hook. The pix below is of me in Big Hole, MT a year ago. It's kinda hard to carry poles, a backpack a G20.4 and a camera. I'll try better next time.

geofri Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Got my bucket list fish this weekend, though it was shorter than I hoped. I'd like to get one 6'+ next time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collim1 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Bass. Did the Bass Club tournament thing for several years. It was fun, but fishing for money became more work than my real job. I have backed off now. I burned out on it and have let shooting take the place of fishing the last couple of years. My boy is getting about the age to learn, so soon I will start fishing again but at a much more leisurely pace. .....and I don’t BS. Photos and digital scale readout or it didn’t happen.

PNWguy Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I did a little fishing this summer; just trout. Fished a reservoir I'd never fished before that's about an hour away and it had some decent rainbows in it... Pretty lake, though... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
