Toof grill is best grill. She looks like she would spend all day fishing with you, let you clean them then cook them up for you. Then when both of you are full of fish, hushpuppies, slaw, and beer she would fuck like crazy.

I'm still trying to get the grill in Austin to catch a fish. We can sight fish in the creeks so I can cast right to a bass for her, but she doesn't quite have the technique down yet.

Damn, git gud. I think Miami anon got skunked the first time we went out because it was like noon in the middle of summer but after that was catching stuff. And last time my sister was here, brought her fishing for the first time and set her up with a small Rapala or something and she was getting Mayans and little bass.

Fuck, I laid down on my couch yesterday at 4pm. Woke up at 9pm and was up for about an hour, then went right back to sleep until a few min ago. Felt good.

I've been going fishing with a great bunch of guys over the past 4 months. We've sort of picked fishing up on a whim but we're learning as we go. What is the most accessible source for learning the lingo? I hate sounding so unsure about what I'm talking about in regards to fishing. Did you guys learn the terminology from someone else? For the record I've caught two catfish and a few yellow bream so I'm not useless just unknowledgeable.

>>976872
Google it.

It's confusing either way because so much of it is regional or depends on the age of the person. One lure could be called a Rapala or stick bait or plug or jerk bait by 4 different people and they could all be referring to the same thing. Names for fish are like that too.

>>976872
Just watch some youtube guides. Bass fishing is the most popular starting point so it has the most and the best tutorials. Now bass fishing is pretty simple so it won't be a master class but it will be a starting point.

Also watch Niggas on Da River, it's not educational really it's just funny.

>>976876
What ever habbend to the /out/ youtube channel? Everybody wanted to get a Gopro and start making vids and nobody has done shit lately. Plus Mainebub too busy being a normie.

>>976877
Why buy a go-pro when you can buy almost a dozen crankbaits

>>976633
Probably a dumb question but what is better live bait or rubber lures? Does it depend on the fish? I've had little success with frozen bait I think its because it disintegrates as it thaws

>>976880
Live bait is probably more successful in most situations but kinda boring imo.

>>976882
I've been using some dragon soft baits but haven't had any success with them. All the fish I have caught were with live worms or frozen prawns

>>976884
You know with soft baits, you aren't supposed to just cast them and let them sit like live and frozen bait. You are supposed to work them like all other lures so it looks like they are live.

>>976877
I'm waiting until it's nice enough to get the boat out

>>976888
wtf i AM an idiot. Well that is going to help in future

>>976892
Yeah, like with bass fishing, you could buy live nightcrawlers and put them on a hook and let them sit under a bobber and you will catch fish. If you do the same thing with a plastic worm, it won't do shit. The live nightcrawler will at least wiggle and get some attention.

With the plastic worm, you rig it up with a Texas rig or wacky rig or whatever, cast it out, and reel it back in bouncing it along the bottom or whatever technique you want to use and this makes it look alive.

>>976868
Well it's not my fault grills don't know how to feesh. I caught em alright.

Idk, half the time I bring somebody else with me who is new they end up outfishing me since I try and set them up with the best bait to land something. My little brother has gone fishing like 3 times and always does better than me since I will be playing around with new lures while he is using stuff that has worked well for me before.

>>976913
Kek I'll let her know

>>976915
I think being able to see what the fish is doing is kinda freaking her out. These creeks are crystal clear so you know how they can be. She got some bites though, but nothing would commit.

>>976701
Don't do it

>>976921
Lel that's what I thought about coffee grill. But I don't think it's going anywhere romantically so I might try and convice her to go now.

>>976915
hes gonna break that rod, right? I ordered some hooks and they sent me some pretty small hooks, I got line,swivels, bobbers, few lures. I guess I need weights and bigger hooks.

>>976936
and I got some plastic worms.

>>976936
It's a cheap Shakespeare UL so it's really flexible. I think it's only like 5'6" too and he's like 6'3" or some shit so it looks worse than it is. But that thing put up a good fight too on that little rod and reel. It was on a little 1/8oz chartruese Rooster Tail too.

>>976939
And what exactly are you trying to do?

For just soaking bait with a bobber, split shots and basically any hook will work as long and it's the right size for the fish you want to catch.

If you want to Texas rig the worms, you want bullet weights and offset worm hooks. 1/4oz is a good all around size for Texas rigs for bass. And then the hook depends on the bait, but 3/0 EWG and 4/0 EWG are probably my most used sizes.

In pic related, they are all "Offset Shank Worm Hooks" but the ones with the curved shanks are "EWG" (extra-wide gap) and can be a little easier to use on certain baits.

Rapala X-RAP (suspending silver color 7/16th oz)

Never seen that one. If I ever make an order from Tackle Warehouse, I'm gonna get a bunch of Sebiles and probably that. A few months back I was lookin real hard for a dark hardbait and I did see one of those Yamamoto cranks in a black and smoky grey color with red specks but I didn't like it that much. Ended up buying one of those purple Mirrolures, a suspending twitchbait.

Goddamn I hate going to Lowe's on a Saturday afternoon.

All u need is Original Swisher Sweets.

Idk, I haven't smoked in so long. Only time I would roll grape is if everything else was stale. Strawberry Swishers are good if you need some flavor, not nearly as overpowering as grape. But Strawberries were always stale because they weren't fast sellers. Peach was always gross, strong like grape but with worse flavor. I don't think they really even sell them anymore.

Then if you got some fire, get down on the Garcia Vegas. A little tricky to roll because they have an extra layer but it complements the weed rather than masking it.

Weed itself helps my allergies.

>>977169
I've heard a lot of bullshit from pot heads but that's up there. Inhaling smoke in no way helps allergies or histamine response from your body. THC is not an antihistamine. You can't even attempt to claim that.

Being drunk would "help" your allergies too since you can just ignore the allergies because you're hammered.

Ridiculous.

never really cared for fishing yet every time i go with a friend or family i catch like way more fish than everyone else?

when i was 14 i went deep sea fishing with my senpai and a couple other guys i didnt know were on the boat. i caught the biggest fish out of everyone within the first 20 minutes, they even posed with my catch for their pictures because it was that much better.

Because of this ive always disliked fishing, it just feels unfair and i hate seeing the hook poke fishes in their face.

I had a special tire installed on the driver side so the frame doesn't scrape the ground while i drive. I steer with my stomach because it's grinding against the steering wheel and I'm constantly blasting my horn as a result. Car tends to drift to one side as I'm driving and I've had to replace the transmission twice. It goes about 20mph max, and i get about .5 miles to the gallon. When i fart in rapid succession it triggers all the Christians in the local area because it sounds like the 7 trumpets.

Rod & Reel A E S T H E T I C

Not my photo, but I absolutely will not buy a fishing pole unless it has cork grips, (I guess saltwater poles would be excluded from the rule)

I love my childhood Shakespeare look, and any similar style of full cork handle, black rod with rainbow shiny text/ lettering.

Also, do visual aesthetics matter a lot to you for a pole? Or just the performance, action, quality of it?

I will say appearance matters quite a bit. I can't stand the look of a foam handle. Or those weird off-black, grey, or yellow poles.

Also love gold on reels, makes me think of Leupold.

You're a fucking retard.

There's so much wrong going on that picture it's impressive.

Cork is garbage. Hard Foam or cork rubber blend is objectively better.they weather better and stand up to salt.

The only thing worse about that pic could be if the guy stuck the hook into the cork.

Cork is the reason I won't buy G Loomis or St Croix rods.

What are the roles of different pole lengths? I bought a 6'6" because the sticky said so. I mention it on here and I was told there was no reason to not have gotten the 7'.

>>977288
Looks good to me. Call me a Fudd but I like the traditional look. But I equally like my Glock and fuddy shotguns. But for a fucking fishing pole, where it's sole purpose to to be a bendy rod, it doesn't fucking matter. This isn't like arguing wood baseball bats versus shaved aluminum ones where there is a performance difference.
Holy fuck you're the retard.

>>977289
That sticky was written by retards and endorsed by trip fag idiots so....

Watch informative fisherman on YouTube and fluke masters 3 rod selection guide on youtube.

6'6" is okay for most thinga. 7 to 8 is more appropriate for most people.

>>977290
Yeah I'm a retard because I don't want cork on my rod that dries out and gets destroyed from being wetted and dried over and over. Sure.

There is very clearly a performance difference.

The only thing cork is slightly better at is not being as cold to hold in brisk nipply weather. That's it.

>>977289
Depends, 6'6" is a good all around length for freshwater and easy to use. Theoretically 7'+ will help cast further. But then again, so would a 14' rod but it gets more difficult to use.

I wouldn't second guess yourself. In the future if you want to set up another combo, go 7' and see how you like it. I was using a 6' all day today and it's a fun one to flick little 1/8oz Mepps.

>>977260
Ehh, I could lose a few elbows but nowhere near as bad as >>977269

>>977284
I fear change.

>>977291
Well goddamnit. Drop that fucking sticky then. I even felt that 6'6" seemed a bit small, I don't see weight or compactness to be of any advantage for a fishing pole to my newb experience. Weight a little, I guess. Are these the /out/ /fish general guys?

I was looking for a simple
Ultra Light is for: bluegill trout, (i'm guessing)
Light: (big trout bass)
etc
Medium:
Heavy:

6'-

7'-

>>977295
Lel you are overthinking this. It's all preference and 6'6" is pretty much standard for a M weight bass rod.

Eh some ugly stiks perform just as good as some of the top shelf rods. Most are really good bait dunkers

>>977295
>let's change the sticky to make things more complicated and useless for people who already have no idea what they will like
Also forgot to mention that a real long rod will generally balance like shit with a small reel. Especially if you get a fiberglass rod like an Ugly Stik.

UL rods are normally like 5'-6', M rods are 6'-7', and MH or H, the most common sizes will be 6'6"-7'6". At least for freshwater.

Of course you can do the 7'3" UL if you prefer it, and you can do an 8' M bass rod if you want, but most people don't.

Cork Newb here again.

Do all states have a 2 pole maximum? Mine does but I have seen boats with two guys and a dozen poles in the water. Who enforces these rules???

I'm looking into a 2nd pole now.

Game wardens.

As far as freshwater, I don't think FL has a limit. I remember looking into it and couldn't find it. And anyway it isn't about using all of the rods at once, but rather having different setups for different purposes.

For freshwater, I always liked to have at least 3. A UL for panfish, a M for bass, and a ML for carp or catfish and soaking bait.

Is "Fast" action the same as ultralight?

Have you tried pegging your weights? I've started doing it recently and I very rarely lose lures anymore. The only time I've lost them is throwing it into heavy cover with 12lb test then getting snagged up. I honestly think it tungsten + pegged is a good way to get the most out of your rod sensitivity wise.

>>977351
I've tried a different kind of peggin.

>>977306
Two poles in the water. You could bring as many rods you need but you could only have 2 lines in the water.

If you're using rope that thick as line, you were probably going for a tortoise to begin with.

>>977388
No. Not at all.

Bulk order lead on tackle warehouse. Thank me later.

>>977388
It's more dense than lead so it might be nice when you really need to cast out deep into the wind. At those bulk prices, that's not too bad. But Bass Pro will want like $3+ for a single bullet weight and that's not worth it at all imo, especially considering I'm often casting Texas rigs right into spots with bad snags.

>>977388
Also gotta remember that some places have laws and rules against using lead weights so you have no choice but to go tungsten.

Stupid fucking loons.

They are good. They came off the Threatened list in my state about 20 years ago. I don't seek them out, but I will eat ones that size if they find my trot line. They grow to at least double that size by the time they are 100. People still found musket balls in them into this century.

Anybody got good tactics or bait for white trout off Gulf Coast piers? Caught enough to well feed three people two Sundays ago off of ground mullet cut bait in two hours. Tomorrow is supposed to be a good day as far as tides, pressure and solar/lunar stuff. The water temp is 73°. Hope to get enough to freeze some this time.

It's what I use 99% of the time.

I mostly troll- and sometimes jig- deep very clear lakes for smallmouth and lake trout

>>977754
I have one, I just hate running back to my tackle bag to get it when I'm trying to snap a pic and release the fish anyway.

And don't talk shit about the Nikes. Those 6.0 shoes were around with the same design for years and were comfy as fuck. Tie them once when you first buy em and just slip them on and off like slippers for the next 2 years.

>>977766
The pastebin in the OP had my copypasta if you are in the US. Although other anon bought a 6'6" rod (that is the standard for a medium weight freshwater rod) and was pissed he didn't go longer because salty shitposting anon was making him second guess himself.

Basically just a medium weight spinning combo. The rod will say something like "M Weight, 6lb-12lb line, 1/8oz-3/4oz" and the reel will normally have a size like "30" or "3000" and line ratings like "Mono- 6lb/170yds, 8lb/150yds, 10lb/130yds". Rod will likely be between 6' and 7'. Get some 8lb mono line like Trilene, might want to ask the retailer to spool it if you're unsure since they will normally do it for cheap or free.

Assorted aberdeen hooks, split shots, bobber, and some bait and you are good to go. Live bait like nightcrawlers is always easiest and should catch whatever is there. See what species are around before you spend a ton of money on lures. If you have a local tackle shop or even a big retailer like Cabela's or Bass Pro, they should be pretty knowledgeable and help you get set up properly for your area.

Does fishing line ever go bad? I have brand new line sitting in boxes, that's about 4+ years old. Also haven't fished in 4+ years so the string on my poles is old too. I feel like buying bulk 1000 yards would be a bad idea if it should be relatively fresh.

>>977766
>Can you suggest starter gear for lakes and rivers?

Boat or shore?

>>977790
You can try it. Sometimes the memory loops can get bad on line like that when it had been sitting forever. But if it was stored in a dark and dry place, it should be ok.

And the line on your reels, if you're using regular monofilament, you want to change that like minimum every spring before you go out for the first time. The sun and water degrades it and makes it weak and brittle and the memory loops (make it look like a Slinky when you cast) can get really bad from sitting on the reel.

lol dude, have you heard of pockets?

My tape measure is about the size of a silver dollar. It's retractable and costs $3.99 on amazon. It doesn't even have to be straight or aligned well with the fish, as long as a few inches are in the picture we can use it to figure out a length. Your shoes on the other hand are completely meaningless. And kind of embarrassing desu. Come on son, time to grow up.

>>977790
>Does fishing line ever go bad?

not from time per se, but from sitting on a spool unused long enough yes it probably can get memory coils that are pretty annoying. If you go through 1000yds/season it shouldn't be a problem.

What's a good setup for stocked trout at a lake that's heavily stocked every other month. I'm a newb getting back into fishing. Currently have a 5'6" Ultralight, and minimal random tackle.

I'm thinking 4lbs test, powerbait, weights, but what size hooks? Do I need bobbers? How should I set up the powerbait? What lure's do trout like?

>>977803
I know, I have a small one like that too but I already have my wallet and keys and cell phone and cigs and pliers and a rag and a knife in my pockets so I don't feel like carrying more. If I really want to get a measurement, I just lay it down next to a rod.

>>977813
I don't have trout down here, but with little powerbaits for panfish I normally run jigheads or underspins from like 1/32oz up to 1/4oz. Get an assorted pack of smaller jigheads and assorted pack of panfish sized Aberdeen hooks and you will be straight.

>>977847
Bruh, if you are going to order from TW, seriously grab a couple of those Sebile Flatt Shads. That was my favorite lure all winter. The 66 size are a good bass size and 50 for bigger crappie or smaller bass.

looking at picking up 2 reels , to match with 2 rods,
both 7 ft fast action, one medium one medium heavy
for the medium i was thinking a 2000-2500 and for the mh 3000-3500

ideally both reels will be the same to match with the rods and black/dark color scheme

was considering a new sienna for each but i only seeing a 1k 2500 and 4000 where im shopping

>>977858
Just remember the sizes are different between brands so might be worth checking them out IRL before you buy. Some brands, the 2000 might be closer to an UL than a M and that same brand's 3500 could be a good M size. I think Shimano's 2500 is good for the M but not sure how large their 4000 is.

You just grab a two day or weekend or 1 day pass for Iike 20 to 30 bucks. Lots of states sell them at hardware stores, gas stations, Wal-marts, bass pros, etc etc

You can get the online too and print them out in many states.

>>977907
Most places have a non-resident licenses that you can get for cheap if you are just visiting. My sister wanted to go fishing when she was down here and it was $17.50 for a 3 day non-resident pass for fresh and shoreline salt.

Yeah, but you concede liberties on little shit like that and they know they can push more and more until eventually you need to pay $400 for a background check just to get the fishing license and another $2700 for the license plus a 45¢/lb fee on every fish you catch.

I've caught a bunch of dink channel cats the last 2 times I've been fishing and didn't even know getting stuck by a barb was even a thing.

yeah dont know what reel you have but theres usually a little plate. add a washer/shim inbetween

>>978605
It's something I've heard as a noob watching various fishing videos.

The lil guy I caught was flailing then around tho.

>>978605
>>978608
If you get poked rub that spot on its belly

>>978597
That's how you are supposed to hold catfish though? I've always grabbed them by wrapping my hand around their body right below the barbs. Never get stuck.

>>978606
Cabela's fish eagle combo, and yea there definitely is a nice place to put it. >>978610
Good tip, I'm guessing thier slime is an anti stinger or something?

>>978610
>>978605
I heard you are supposed to cum on it no? Or is that jellyfish?

>>978620
Only if a female is stung

y u no lip them?

>>978646
you can do that to, some have abraisive small teeth for gripping onto stuff
most catfish i catch are small ish so i dont need to lip them
i do lip sea robins all the time though

>>978615
I do it almost like that with smallish ones. Grab'em over the back, directly behind dorsal with right pectoral between middle and pointer fingers, and left dorsal between back of thumb and ring finger. Maybe someone has a pic of this?

Once they're 3 or 4 pounds, you literally have to squeeze the shit out of them to do this, because of the slimyness. If you let up your grip when they flop, you'll get gigged.

Bigger than that, I stab'um in the brain with a mora. Fillet gloves or a Leatherman can be helpful if you don't want it dead.

I'm sure most of ya'll know you don't put a flopping cat in the chest with your beer. He'll drink it all when you're not looking.

>>978647
What you really have to worry about when lipping or gilling is the plates in the throat that they crush crustaceans and mollusks with. If you drop'um when they bite down. There's a good chance you'll get gaffed in the leg or foot.

6 batteries now for my canoe/TM setup. I think I have a problem.

>>978667
Why not just a couple of big, sealed deep cycles?

The cat I caught was chubby and a pleasure to hold. Lipping it would not have been the same.

Gripping that lil cat felt like grooping a nice breast.

And the smell of the slime I can still faintly smell.

If I had that many batteries, I'd invest in a solar charger for them.

>>978669
>Why not just a couple of big, sealed deep cycles?

They're flooded deep cycles. You mean like Optima batteries? I looked into those...and I've figured that properly maintaining these instead is smarter economically. Also need extras so I can fish 3 fresh batteries while another 3 are charging from the day before.....like I said it's a problem lol.

>>978674
>Gripping that lil cat felt like grooping a nice breast.

something tells me wasn't long ago you were groping ur mama's nice breast.

>>978700
Your Lead/acid batteries will only take daily charging and depletion for a couple months before your potential amp hours start dropping, and then dissappear.

Those 6 will be core charges, while the two x $250 batteries will just be getting broke in.

saltwater fishing
>can be tricky to learn but the fish you can catch will give you the fight of a lifetime
bass fishing
>requires a lot of knowledge and techniques to catch fish, the fish doesn't fight hard but can still be fun
catfishing
>requires minimal knowledge and skill, the fish fights like a log

Is cat fishing the ultimate meme?

>>978714
If you honestly think targeting big blue cats and flat heads takes no skill you're a tard.

>>978714
Ya catch catfish when you go saltwater fishing and bass fishing, whether you want too or not.

>>978667
If the game warden sees you with 6 batteries, he's gonna take your fish.

>>978714
>Hasn't caught a big cat

I caught a sting ray once. Was pretty weak. I've caught trout that fought like they were triple their size.

>>978716
>use sonar to find deep pockets with fish in it
>set out various rods with various baits
>catch fish

wow what a accomplishment

>>978637
I picked up that 6'6 mh no.8 and the curado. Hopefully it gets here before the weekend. I picked up 14 lb mono to learn on. Maybe Bepsi would be willing to teach me.

Has anyone used creme lures? My friend gave me a pack of reel screamers.

>>978631
Owwww holy shit! I've always felt this inner instinctual bad feeling whenever I'd go bare foot in big lakes and rivers

>>978742
stingrays fights are like lifting a doormat off the ocean floor. Catch a big redfish, cobia or snook and tell me they don't fight like hell.

Jacks are pound for pound some of the hardest fighting fish on this planet. A 3 pound jack feels like you're trying to pull in an 18 wheeler on light tackle.

The only meme fishing is not-fishing, and posting here without good content.

>>978438
Why is that man displaying a hilariously huge dildo? I thought /out/ was good christian board.

>>978742
Fucking stingray is objectly the worst fish to fight ever. They just abuse their body shape and fuck you over by just digging into the sand. If you don't have the line and drag tough enough to lift them out of the ocean bottom then you are SOL. Not only that, they give you can give you a nasty sting when you land them and trying to unhook. They can get very big and heavy that need to up to at least 50 LB + line and you might hook on one anytime.

Everything else is pretty good though.
