The Unofficial Fishing Thread

Discussion in 'The Great Outdoors' started by Stølas, Dec 27, 2017.

  1. So lately I've been getting into fishing more and more. Figured I'd stop spamming PYT with my fishing BS so here it is. My buddy really got me into it, and now I'm hooked. No pun intended.

    Post your rods, tackle, your fish and local spots, or anything fishing related.

    Here's my set up for tomorrow at a local lake that was just stocked with a couple hundred pounds of trout bass and blue gill

    Shimano solara rod w/Shimano 4000fe reel, hardbait on the line for bass and trout tomorrow, normally just use nightcrawlers and redworm but trying to try out some trout spinners and crankbaits/hardbait tomorrow.

    And here's my latest catch that ended my weeks long skunk streak, a blue gill/pumpkin seed hybrid. Lots of em around here.[​IMG][​IMG]

  2. Next time you are at a tackle shop pick up some Kastmasters they are a good all around spoon. The gold works pretty good.

    I am building a couple of spinning rods here in the next couple of weeks just waiting for my MHX Rod blanks to show up and some other supplies.

    Here is a Kastmasters. [​IMG]

  5. In eastern Oregon we slay crappie with these cheap little jigs (red/white seems to work best for me). I love fishing but have taken a break in recent years. Sold my boat and after living on the Oregon coast I became spoiled and don't really care for the fishing out here these days. Too long of a drive to the kind of fishing I like (clean mountain river trout or coastal steelhead and salmon).

  11. That's a fatty! Good times.
     
  12. Rod blanks showed up today. Just need the rest of the stuff to show up and a empty day to begin the build. Little nervous as I have never built a fishing rod before. If all works out I am going to build a nice fly rod and start fly fishing again.[​IMG]

  13. Got skunked at that lake we used to go to as kids. But got a new kastmaster spoon that helps get out a lot further. It'll be better for those big ass trout I see people catching at our usual spot

  18. Can't wait to hit the lake we usually go to. It's a stocked lake but they bring down some amazing trout from the north. Hopefully we go around the 20th which is a couple days after stock or the last day they can.

    I'm hungry for salmon tho. Can't wait for the fishing trip, still no idea where we're going though
