Notice the glow in his right hand?His secret is revealed - he absorbs fish energy like a Spock Style Vulcan Mind Meld....LOL
I'll have some of the steelie all set for you Bobbie when you come up in two weeks. I just got done prepping the meat for the brine.
You know what though Frank..5 years ago I had some health issues and when I was in the hospital, the doctor recomended me eating 1 meal a week of cold water oily fish like trout or salmon.. He said your white meat fish like walleye and perch don't have the oils that help your heart like trout and salmon do... He said the health benefits to your heart out way the risks of mercury poisioning , if eatin in moderation...true story.
That lightning was hitting so close and so often I had to pick my feet up off the ground and sit on the picknick table... it was rattling the windows ... very impressive, not whole lot of rain, but a quick something.. Looks like you boys had fun out there Adam!!!!
That would be a yes! Creeks or River I'm sure. Gillripper1 was using them last year in the river. oh i was talking about the skein i caught out of browns out in the lake, i wasnt sure if they would be as good as they are usually when you catch the fish out of the creeks and rivers. the strips are about half the normal size i would say. but eggs look like they were coming very close to make this fish want to run and spawn soon.
Yeah we always have fun, for the record. The busch cans in the cooler were not mine and we usually don't keep skippys but frank wanted to try to smoke them whole. The 400 copper was the best setup in the morning firing 5 times. The king Ht took came on a wire diver out 200 over 98 fow. I haven't been able to do anything on my Riggers. Every fish came on spinnys with mtn dew and hammer fly. That was a very thick heathly fish Ht took. I thought he was gonna have to tap out after about 15 mins
Picked up a quick 5/8's of an inch of rain earlier....was just outside working..it aint done yet..it's really humid and the sun is poking through..I bet some real good storms get popping soon... cold rain this morning 64 degrees after the storm ended.....
what are you talking about Forest i was ready for more their captain great day over all out their, thanks for the trip bud. ready to go again anytime oh ya you might want to work on your netting skills a little
I still haven't done much off my downriggers either. I think i was running my spinnie/flies too far back (15-20 ft). I'm going to try running them tighter to the ball (8-10 ft). I was going to say something about the busch cans too! Nice fish guys!! I'm jealous as it's been t-storming my last 3 days off. As far as skein goes...a buddy of mine did really well cutting it up and tying it into sacs last year. He said he's going to do the same this year. He was surprised at how well it worked.
