What would you use? for a shot at a million$$
 
Its July 1st and you have a new moon, Your offered 1$Million dollars If you can land a fish over 30lbs you can only fish from the surf and you have Only one hour in which to try and make it happen. You have to activley fish and not drown a chunk......Question is?? What method would you use??:smokin:

We can choose the spot correct. Because certain techinques are better at certain spots. That said.

I would fish an eel real slow. I don't know a better way to catch a cow:smokin:

spence 01-30-2006 02:20 PM

Probably a stun gun and ninja costume.

That way when McKenna woke up, he wouldn't know what hit him or what happened to the fish :rtfm: :rotf3:

Tough to do from the beach Mike. If eels aren't on the endangered list by then, it would have to be a live eel. I used to do the Osterville Anglers Club education series and had for years ( I used to do nothing but Saltwater Flyfish, don't hate me) run seminar series for eight weeks each year starting in January till April and when someone would ask me what was the best way to catch a big bass (meaning on a flyrod) I would tell them to put the flyrod away, get a ten foot conventional and some nice big lively sled dog eels!!!!!:hihi:

good , I can't wait.....I love fishing eels...and heard you are the king...looking forward to hearing you speak at the upcoming shows.

Saltheart 01-30-2006 04:21 PM

If they were around , i would use a big trebble to simple snag a pogie and let it struggle around out there. If there were no sign of the bait fish , I would use the eel....rigged not live.

fishaholic18 01-30-2006 04:23 PM

I would use a 3# lobster and an 8/0 treble with 200 # mono.
It is a million $$$ ya know....:rotf3:

Saltheart 01-30-2006 04:27 PM

I can work the rigged eel as well as a live one. I can cast it further to cover more area , and I have two hooks when that bass comes near it.

Nebe 01-30-2006 04:27 PM

mink fetus soaked in baby oil :rotfl:

Slipknot 01-30-2006 04:34 PM

ThrowingTimber 01-30-2006 04:37 PM

A big Honkin Shad with a 7/0 treble hangin off his face and a stinger hook 8/0 held in place on his tail w/ a rubber band, with the point slightly pokin thru his tail, to leave a steady drip, drip, drip of yumminess (assuming it was'nt pounced on within 15 minutes), when it died I'd yo yo that mf'er, but I'd add a few packing peanuts to get a sort of weird neutral bouyancy.. then when it started for fall to pieces, I'd dice it up, and use 2 rods in current with thill floats, at alternating depths and distances, I'd work the chunks back and forth, one drifting out one comin in slow, I'd toss lil itsy bitsy pieces of the lil heathen, in its own slick.... :vamp:

ThrowingTimber 01-30-2006 04:38 PM

that'd be too much work, gimme an eel. :rtfm:

Joe 01-30-2006 04:43 PM

A black 15" two hook rigged Ultimus eel worked slowly along or very near the bottom on the outflow of a certain estuary at night around a new moon

ThrowingTimber 01-30-2006 05:56 PM

Sea Dangles 01-30-2006 05:57 PM

Dragging sand eels at Race Point at a certain time of year will outfish ANY method.Day or night the bass are keyed in on these little critters and you can have as many snakes as you want,your best chance for large would be the sand eel.
