shimmy Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I found the female topic on the general forum interesting and wanted to add to it. I was wondering if people could list pictures of their daughter/sister/wife/(any female) bass that they pulled in and the technique that was used. This is a video of my wife catching her first big bass but no need to watch the full thing, just skip to her part if you want to at the minute 4.15 on the video. Finally fixed the video. Apparently the johnny cash music made the music inaccessible to the US. Had this video up for 2 years and never realized it. So, i just reloaded it without music I love this video in that it was caught on film (i must warn you, i panicked and started to coach her too much and my voice went up three octaves. This fish really sealed the deal and got my wife excited for bass fishing. The lure is blotted but only so the locals wouldn't use it. Any decent angler would figure out what works. Technique= dragging a worm. My guess, from most women who catch big bass who are not avid fisherman, their big bass come by dragging some type of bait (usually unintentionally). This does not include the experienced female angler. Just wanted to see if their was a pattern. Quote

Super User NorcalBassin Posted March 10, 2011 Super User Posted March 10, 2011 Bummer... been blocked in my country as well. ;D No video or pic, but my wife's first LM came on a grub on a darterhead... just told her to cast it towards shore and slowly reel it in. Bam, first cast and there it was. Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted March 10, 2011 Super User Posted March 10, 2011 Here are some pics of my fiance and our fishing trips! She usually skips the bass trips, but loves the trout trips! Here are a couple of her bests! All of these were caught bottom bouncing while drifting. She uses a Pleuger President on a St Croix premier spinning outfit! And yes that is her rod and reel! Quote
central.PA.bass Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Here is a video of my fiancee and I's fishing last year...

Those trout are gorgeous!!! Man, the colors are amazing. Trout fishing is a great second to bass fishing. My video is finally up and running. Sorry about the delay. B. Lee, your video is not showing. Central bass, That is a great video! Man, that is a plethora of fishing trips your gal goes on. A man could not ask for more Quote

MFBAB Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Here's a nice Smallie she had last Fall. We were fishing RW's private pond below Pickwick dam so try to keep it on the DL Quote
SDoolittle Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 This is my 12 year old daughter, Samantha, with an Oklahoma farm pond bass. She's been fishing with me her whole life, but this was her first time targeting bass with baitcasting gear. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted March 10, 2011 Super User Posted March 10, 2011 This was my wife's first experience with UL tackle and 4 lb line. I think it was late summer/early fall and the fish took a tube right in front of that grass line in the back round of the photo. A-Jay Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted March 11, 2011 Global Moderator Posted March 11, 2011 My wife and I decided to try a shallow pond off a local lake that is choked with weeds during the summer time. Thought the shallow mud bottom might attract some fish early in the year and they were! She was fishing an 1/8 oz black and blue chatterbait on 6lb test and keeping up pretty well with me and putting a hurting on my buddy that was fishing with us. One of her first fish was a nice fish. There were some shad flipping in a corner of the lake the pond is next to and when I told her to cast towards them she was rewarded with this really healthy chunk. She had to have a pink rod but the Okuma in the picture just got retired for a St. Croix Avid Pearl and Quantum Energy PT, whatever it takes to keep her happy and keep her going fishing with me .

Super User Dwight Hottle Posted March 11, 2011 Super User Posted March 11, 2011 Great video! Really enjoyed it. Quote
shimmy Posted March 11, 2011 Author Posted March 11, 2011 Great video! Really enjoyed it. thanks Dwight. There is something about all of these pictures. Now, don't get me wrong, i enjoy fishing with my family and the occassional friend here and there, but when you go fishing with the wife/daughter/or female, it makes it more exciting. All of these pictures just make me want to take my wifey fishing again. Plus, i am not gonna lie, they are usually more willing to film a good fish getting reeled in than your buddy who is silently ticked off that they didn't catch the fish and is still fishing or begrudgingly netting the fish.

TxFishingPlease Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 That is a nice striper! Congrats to the young lady. Quote

laus Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Wow!! Loved this thread, those pics. I remember the times when my dad took me fishing...they were the times I remember best with him. They were the times I felt like I was welcomed and loved by him in his world (he would practice cast all winter in Maine and was fanatic!). When I showed promise he told me secrets about bass and their ways. We spent many an hour silent as the sun rose. When I saw these photos of wives and daughters holding their catches triumphantly I remembered those times, and was happy! Thanx Shimmy for bringing this up...a big part of fishing really is companionship in all its forms (man to man, man to woman, father to daughter, father to son. Fishin rules in so many ways ;D Quote
