Aww!!! (':oops:') After we weighed that bugger, the fish went back into Wilson. My mistake, not a grass carp, just a common carp like the one here: http://s14.postimage.org/xceaq5sot/common_carp.jpg the one I got was mostly dark but had a nice golden tinge to the sides, kinda looked like a TUC at f...

Takes a special skill set (luck) to hook a grass carp with a bass lure. Many have tried, most will fail.








Ancient Chinese proverb revised:

" Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he joins the HFFA and goes fishing.

Went fishing at Lake Wilson yesterday, didn't catch anything except for this grass carp using a secret lure. ( 2 1/2" swimbait on a leadhead jig ) http://s7.postimage.org/ep8hlb3fr/lure.jpg The carp inhaled this lure and after a short battle, landed this 2 1/2 lb black and golden carp. http://s10.po...

Aww shucks! now I guess I gotta go shopping as well.

My wife has been trying to get me to agree to go to Branson Missouri to check out the shows and stuff that people do when they go there. I have to admit that I was not too keen on going to a place like that as I heard that it's where all the old people go to see all these old time singers perform. S...

Stan, I have those same kinds of experiences as well. I think the part of fishing that makes it standout in our memories are the times that you spend doing it with family and friends. If you notice, it's not really about the actual fishing ( although that's fun as well ) but rather at the end of the...

What about line conditioners like Ardent line butter, I've used this to help with casting when using braid line, it's supposed to help protect and condition the line. Haven't used it enough to know if it affects the way fish react or not.

Hi, There will be a hatchery cleanup on Sunday, November 25th, 2012 starting around 9:00 am for all of you that need an excuse as to why you can't go shopping with your significant other. The bass hatchery is located on the grounds of Wahiawa Middle School ( 275 Rose Street Wahiawa, HI 96786 ) Some ...

Stan, It's possible that we could have misread the tag number.

( I'll blame it on roadwarriorsvt as he read the tag to me )


The other possibility although I would be reluctant to admit it, could be my hearing as that's what I heard when I recorded the tag number

Ten anglers took part in the November HFFA tournament today. The water level according to the bridge gauge was about 65 ft with water temperatures in the early morning starting out at 71 degrees. The water temperature did not rise that much during the day, reaching 75 degrees by the afternoon weigh-...

Hmm! maybe now's the time to go rod/reel fishing and see if I can find
my rig that I "accidentally" kicked off the side of the boat earlier this year.

11 anglers in 8 boats took to the waters. The weather was beautiful, mostly sunny, with occasional overcast clouds and a nice breeze. The water level was about 70' with water temperatures starting around 76 in the morning and climbing to about 79 degrees by the afternoon. The morning bite was slow a...
