I've been doing very well this year for big fish and had a banner night this past weekend fishing relatively shallow water. I didn't see anyone out fishing either. Like #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& said you gotta move, and cant get into a habit of dedicating all your time to a spot. Hit places that produced in the past but dont stay there too long if its not producing. Water temps are warming so the fish want an easy move from shallow to deep water. This year in the salt ive fished 99.99% eels and it pays off for bigger fish. You cant compete with the real thing. This time of year you have to move until you hit them.

I've been getting pretty frustrated in the past couple weeks. More than once, I've had "someone" fishing next to me hook up large while we're both using the same stuff at the ends of our lines. It's great to see someone cool catch a big fish, but it makes me wonder what I'm doing wrong. I think I've been doing far more picture-taking of others' catches than fishing lately. I might as well become some fisherman's personal photographer, as I'm getting quite adept at aiming and shooting a shining face holding a big fish accurately in the dark. Perhaps there was a voodoo curse on the UPS truck that delivered my new reel? I mean, it did take a week to get to me after I ordered it. That's enough time to go hit up Mama Boulay down South for a quick "no catchee da fish" spell. Hopefully it wears off soon. Putting in my time, including the 3-hour round-trip drive, is just getting more and more frustrating -- where are my fish??  |
The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.
