When Is The Last Time You Invited Someone Fishing ?

[lanzbass]

When I was a child before heading out to fish I would always walk to one of my friends house's and invite them to come along.

As I became a teen I would ride my bike and continued to invite others to come along .

I still invite others to come along with us

So am I just old school , or do others still invite ?

I invite my friends all of the time.  I've actually got 3 of my friend into fishing this summer (rods,lures, licenses etc.) I can tell you this, I feel good when I hear that they are going fishing or they mention the one that jumped off.  I say to them  "throw the line back in and get'em".  It's nice to share pics and stories and they thank me for getting them started.

My father always took me walleye and muskie fishing from the time I was to young to cast a line untill this day. When I got into bass fishing, not really his thing, I did most of fishing solo due to my friends not being big fisherman in high school. 

 

Now that I've completed college and moved on to new friends, got married, and inherited an awesome family through marriage I haven't fished alone in 2-3 years. I'm always taking my wife, dad, father-in-law, friends, and my wife's cousins. I use to like fishing alone and from time to time I still do, but honestly I've really started to enjoy bass fishing more since getting other people addicted to this awesome sport of ours. Very rewarding and makes for some awesome memories on the water.

In the last month I took a buddy that has struggled to catch fish because he is new to the area.  A few weeks before that I took my Brother in law, niece, nephew, and wife along with me because they all wanted to go.  Most of my fishing time now is taking others.

When Is The Last Time You Invited Someone Fishing ?

 

Monday.

[Dwight Hottle]

Not often enough.

[MarkH024]

Not often enough.

X2.  And not even myself going enough.

 

I will say, I don't mind fishing alone. 

[Grizzn N Bassin]

Everyday lol... but I do enjoy going out alone I seem to be more focused.. either with friends, my fathers friends, or my uncles.. every weekend I take my Dads friends out to my honey holes.. so I guess there my friends too. I learn old school tips from them and I show them new things all the time..

Last Monday

Here's my buddy. He spends 9 months of the year in Iraq as a security contractor. He's into golf; I'm hoping a few more fish like the one above might change that lol We are going on a midnight lunker hunt tonight. He lost another good one after this and was super upset. I had to tell him that's the way it goes and as you get better you will lose less fish. I actually enjoy taking people that aren't into fishing and getting them excited about the sport.

I invite my wife every time I go. She declines most of the time, but she'll go once a month or so. There's an open invitation to my son-in-law and my grandkids too.

For a tournament on the Historic James River on August 17th.

 

Guy could not go so I went by myself.

invited a friend to catfish with me and my brother in law saturday night on lake gaston when i was visiting NC. he said yeah at first then backed out that day for whatever reason. two game wardens rode by us(on shore) in their boat 4 times, befor going around a bend into a cove and docking, then trying to sneak up on us by land. they got 10 feet away and clicked on a flashlight and announced themselves. they just wanted to do a license check, our licenses were good. they were pretty stealthy though, never heard them coming...

Wednesday afternoon.  Went yesterday.  Caught a lot of fish.  Beautiful fishing day on a lake you wouldn't want to fish on a summer weekend.  Cloudy with sprinkles, then an hour or so of steady rain, and very little wind.  Only two other boats on this 1400 acre lake, with who knows how many miles of shoreline.  Great structure.  Great cover.

Many friends want to go fishing until, it's time to go fishing.  Then they don't want to go fishing.

Fishing is a sport that it fun to share with a freind and unless I am seriously concentrating on catching giant bass using jigs during pre spawn, I usually fish with a partner. Jig fishing during pre spawn can be very exciting however is very boring for several hours or even days, so I rarely fish with another angler because I lose concentration and mt patients.

I've invited lots of people, they usually only go once though, they try and try while I catch and catch.  I tell em what works for me, but I guess they just dont understand what I've had to go through to be able to catch em like I do.  But for the most part I just take my little ones and those two will fill a boat with lots of bickering and making all kinds of twin noise (those with twins understand what I mean here, those without twins...  well, I just cant put into words the AGGRAVATION AND SUFFERING)

[Diablos]

I only invite people who can withstand the awkward silence.

[paul25]

I invite lots of my friends but like someone said above they always want to go till it's time to go, but I've had my papaw in the boat with me for the past few weeks of fishing and i couldn't ask for a better time when we go

And this is what happened....a 4-7 hopped on Paul's hook.

 

 

I just finished two days at Lake of the Ozarks with my cousin from San Antonio but I didn't get a picture of him flipping the bird.

I try to take others out as often as possible. It's definitely nice to have someone to talk to, especially when the bite is slow.

In the past I would fill up the car with the neighborhood kids and take them fishing with me and my son. I worked nights so I got up early to take them all fishing. Today there all adults and they never forgot about me taking them fishing.

One of the boys I took fishing offered me a free elk hunting trip he is a hunting guide in Idaho. Not that I expected anything but doing good always comes back to us in different ways. Good karma?

My son's ask me now to go fishing. Soon as my grandson gets older he will be my fishing buddy.

When you own a boat and you're always catching fish you don't have to invite people
