Super User Fishing Rhino Posted August 31, 2015 Super User Posted August 31, 2015 We need a new topic for threads like this one. "Something Else" We have an "Everything Else" topic, but this thread is something else, as are a few others 1 Quote

Super User roadwarrior Posted August 31, 2015 Super User Posted August 31, 2015 Well, that's fine, but if someone wants advice on equipment I don't think "just any old thing will do". Give us a pricing point and our guys will suggest their favorite gear in your range. The best gear will not make a bad fisherman good, but it can make a good fisherman better. Whether higher priced equipment improves your "catching" is debatable, but it certainly makes the "fishing" more fun! 3 Quote

Super User bigbill Posted August 31, 2015 Super User Posted August 31, 2015 I fished with a bamboo rod with no reel then with a $5 Zebco reel with no bearings was better at 11yo. We would wear those Zebco reels out every year fishing when we were kids. We were poor. I raked leaves, cut grass to get my fishing stuff. We didn't make much money. My very first good spinning reel was a D.A.M. QUICK when I was 22 years old with my first income tax return. Those memories with the Zebco reels I will never forget. I'm 64yo now. My PB 10# was caught on a black beauty rod and a Wal-Mart quantum spinning reel. The bass didn't care. My point is we can't put a price on fun. Buy what you can afford and get out there fishing that's what counts. I had holes in my shoes but I had that new Zebco reel. I just gave my 5yo grandson his first Zebco reel and casting rod. The Zebco legend lives on. 2 Quote
Super User K_Mac Posted August 31, 2015 Super User Posted August 31, 2015 We must all learn to be more tolerant and accepting. What Slone and some of the rest of us understand is that tolerance and acceptance are much overrated! 1 Quote
Super User bigbill Posted August 31, 2015 Super User Posted August 31, 2015 We can fish with any rod and reel but we need quality line with a good knot. We have lost the respect and love for our fellow man after all we are all brothers in some way. God bless. We all have a bad day. 3 Quote

Super User slonezp Posted August 31, 2015 Author Super User Posted August 31, 2015 Love it. I'll spin ye' a yarn -a true one: A buddy I used to muskie fish with on the St. Lawrence River had the biggest muskie ever come onto the floor of his boat one summer. It was 51-1/2" long and was caught by an inebriated kid on a 1/4oz Mr. Twister jig on a cheap Zebco spin-cast outfit. I once caught a 40" pike on a jig and half nightcrawler. I was perch fishing and apparently the pike decided the nightcrawler looked more tasty than the perch 1 Quote

Super User slonezp Posted August 31, 2015 Author Super User Posted August 31, 2015 You forgot to add while in a walleye boat I left it out because I thought it might upset all these bass fishermen, you know....a bass being caught in something other than a bass boat. In fact, it wasn't in the nice walleye boat I have now. It was in my old Mirrocraft 1 Quote

Super User slonezp Posted August 31, 2015 Author Super User Posted August 31, 2015 I'm thinkin a big glob of worms and a 3" bobber. You sound like a sturgeon fisherman Quote
Fun4Me Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Is this even a debate? I think Hank Hill is the only one on the other side of that potential debate. 1 Quote
Super User slonezp Posted August 31, 2015 Author Super User Posted August 31, 2015 So ..... where are the pics ? You do understand that without pics this thread is worthless. Pics? Here's a few of my favorites 6 Quote

Super User bigbill Posted August 31, 2015 Super User Posted August 31, 2015 Charcoal or gas? Is this even a debate? Nothing like a hardwood fire. Fresh caught catfish, burgers, dogs, kielbasa, sausage, even pepperoni sticks taste awesome on wood Quote
Logan S Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 But if there wasn't all that back and forth discussion...What would I read at work all day? Now that I have boring office job I need something to keep me awake! Quote
