Hi folks. Net handle is 18" - this guy was solid. We always practice CPR. Hopefully we can get a better photo next time around. I am still working out the camera responsibilities with my 7 year-old fishing partner. Of course he has the part of who fights the fish down. A lot of boats on the water to...

I saw a DLNR guy fall into the lake. Seriously. I was fishing on the side of the ramp and he slipped while getting out of their boat to go for the truck.

I always go to McCully Bike in town for the license and Wahiawa permit. In addition to having both documents, the girls at the counter are pleasant and have nice hand writing too.

I was using manufactured catfish bait on a dip tube. You mentioned dog food and supposedly there are some common ingredients. But if you ask me to describe the catfish bait it smells most similar to what comes out of the dog's other end. It works though. I was joking about the pacu but you sold me o...

Hi folks. I am largely a lurker here but check in on the latest happenings at our fishery regularly. I thought I would contribute this post to add to the wide variety of catches that have been reported lately. Anyway, this morning I went out as usual looking specifically for catfish and to my surpri...

I saw the DLNR Police boat, fully staffed, ride in and out past BSA at about 3:30pm today. On the way, out an HFD boat followed shortly after them. The HFD boat was also fully occupied and also carried several female passengers wearing "Police" jackets and carrying cameras. Anyone know what was goin...

This is exactly what I was saying in the other thread...I am on a cold streak. I am told that catfish do not stay in the same place - they move around to where the water, food, etc. is most comfortable for them. Therefore you need to chase their habits to get in a better position for action. Then mo...

I have been having a bad run with the catfish the last 2-3 weeks too. I am pretty confident in my techniques and bait. I know the spots I hit have fish because I have brought them in before (and put them back for the most part) but lately very little action whatsoever. Very frustrating. Mind that I ...

That is good news. I am a bank fisherman and I saw this population last Sunday working at least a dozen trot lines between 3-4 guys. When you approach people like this and try to set them straight they conveniently don't comprehend English or understand anything remotely related to rules, bag limits...

Hey Bassfishin - We you the guys ordering the pizza from lakeside? I think I was fishing next to you. I am another shore person. I usually fish on Sundays. I go specifically after the catfish though. Sunday was a particularly slow day in that spot which is typically productive for me. I got 1 hit al...
