Rivers Vs. Lakes.

[Sandhillcrab]

Alright. I love fishing lakes. But rivers are lots of fun. What do you guys like better?

[bowhunter63]

I love to fish them both,But always favor a river.

[davecon]

Yes

[Steveo-1969]

Both.  Literally 99% of my fishing is done on a river and I love fishing it.  But I also love fishing a lake the other 1% of the time because it's something totally different than what I'm used to fishing.

Lakes. I hate river fishing.

Fishing any where any time

Lakes in the spring, rivers summer through fall.

Both.  They both have their challenges.  I have found river fish seem to be a bit tougher once hooked compaired to their lake counterparts.  

[scaleface]

I like them both .One of my favorite ways to fish is to anchor above dikes on the Mississippi River and use nightcrawlers on the bottom . I catch so many different types of fish like that , its just a blast not knowing   whatwill  bite  next .

i prefer rivers but fish lakes more often.  fishing out of a kayak presents some challenges when river fishing when i don't have a shuttle set up.

I prefer fishing lakes. But I prefer catching river fish.

I am more comfortable on a lake, because that is where I have far more experience. I like river fishing, but it is far more challenging to me.

Barely any rivers or creeks around here with bass. I love going to the Ozarks and fishing for smallies in those rivers though. I'll take what I can get really.

I am used to lakes, but I started learning rivers again during this year's turnover. Lots to study yet.

I usually prefer to fish lakes.  Rivers are ok just as long as the current is not too fast.

I think current makes it more fun

I´m not going to say there aren´t rivers where I´m at, there are but they are dry 70% of the year, so all my fishing is done in lakes and ponds.

call pick a river every time but there's no bass in Washington rivers. I fish lakes here because that's where the bass are. Connecticut the rivers had everything including striper and were way better

You sound very, uh, "angry" about that...

It is a little sad how low of density bass we have on the kitsap penensula. I just came from CT where you can find bass everywhere.

Angry......You are located near Bremerton (naval shipyards) Puget Sound where salmon and Steelhead rule.

You need to go south to the Columbia River for world class bass river fishing or closer is lake Washington, Glenn can help you out to located bass fishing nearer to you.
