The fishing thread

I'm actually going to go fly fish for panfish in a little bit.

 

Went out today panfishing with the wife she caught one. I caught 6. This is the biggest one that wanted to play. This weekend I'll be hunting for largemouth.

 

I was able to boat 6 nice ones this evening. Here’s one them.

 

Beautiful fish

 

Thank you

 

Holy moly! Talk about having bigger fish to fry!!

 

My favorite time to fish is in the rain during the summer. Keeps others Inside

 

The gif did not work, look again

 

killing, even a fish, is not a game. eating however, is a natural and necessary function of life.

the nature of the pursuit of fish, and the nature of competition, are two things i find difficult, nay impossible, to reconcile.

then again, i find competition generally gratuitous.

then there is the nature of water, and its boundry with the earth. the sights and delights, rewards visual and otherwise of quiet places.

all of these things, and the parts of the fish you don't eat, and what you do with them.

there's a whole enviro-economic about that, and all the many ways you might go about getting the fish from the hook to the fire to your stomic.

all of these things togather and not any seperate one of them alone.

Oh. Hahahaha

Although I had to work today, I was able to get out for a couple hours and get the season going! Now that I know where, what, how deep, etc.... I'm excited for tomorrow!

 

They look good enough to eat.

 

Alright, alright, what have you done with the most important accessory - cans of beer ???

 

Hmmmmm - very nice - grilled whole in a red wine sauce - beautiful !!!

 

You're a pro!

 

Went out this morning for 2 hours fly fishing. Caught a bunch. 3 biggest of the day. I'm not really going to start being aggressive with fishing until June and then all day everyday

 

Will big fish like that catch bigger fish? Do fisherman take fish like that from a location and then use them to lure giant fish elsewhere?
