I love fishing. Biggest I've caught was when I was in St.Lucia during New Years. I caught a 15 pound wahoo. It was a triple header when they bit. Not a hardcore fishermen, but when the lakes too rough to go for speed runs, I toss in a line

I did go fishin with a friend by the power plant on the 'hot pond'. We kapt 12 sunnies, biggest was almost 9in. Using jigs and bobbers, mine slowly went down. I set the hook and it was like dead weight. Then it started throwin its head around a bit, turned out to be a 7lb. dogfish. Whooo do those things fight!! I was trying to take a measurment of it and my hand was holdin its head down when my finger slipped a little to close and he clamped down on my finger. Ooooh, that was tight. Then my friend started punchin it in the head to get him to let go.
he did and I threw him back in the water and he swam away with a bashed head

.

Not too long after that I caught a little sunnie and thought I'd let him tire himself out a bit. Right after I thought that I see a big swoosh-n-swipe. About a 6lb. northern swalloed it up!! I started to reel him in but he let go of it after 5 sec. I got the sunnie back and he had a big gouge by his butt, his dorsal fins were all chewed up and his tail fin was torn up too.

Then we cleaned and ate the fish and they tasted awesome.

This was just recently. I was out fishing last week on the Crooked River in front of the Riverside bar, and latched on to this whopper.

It was a catch, and release because these aren't in season yet. Season opens when the temps hit around 80 degrees

Oh and the teeth are false

What kind of bait did you use? Don't tell me your little night crawler.

Whiskey and lots of it

SnowRida · 05-09-2006, 11:10 AM

How did you keep whiskey on the hook?
