Catch of the day [Fishing]

[jordanscollected]

Finally got the boat and the lines wet.
Lost 2 expensive lures to northern and had the largest bass spot the hook.

Man I missed fishing.

My nephew Saalim will be costarring in most of my fishing adventures. He can catch 1 fish in 6 hours and grin from ear to ear the entire time. The perfect fishing partner.

Good day out boys, well done…..

been going out for Weakfish lately. they’ve been missing from our fishery for a long time. catching one used to be like seeing a unicorn. but they were back in numbers this year. here one of the many “unicorns” i caught. we were fishing g what is refered as a tombolo. it’s where waves meet after an island splits them. it leaves a bar that has deep water on both sides. we stand on the bar in waist deep moving water and fish either side or wherever the hell the wind allows.

Cool.  I am about to go out and fist a shingle spit.  I'm hoping to find some current around the end of it.  So far. zero Bass for me this year (the season appears to be about a month late)…

@Matty123 that is a great looking fish. Good eating? And what is the size of that specimen?

[Matty123]

i let this fellow go but he was about 25 inches long. i have never eaten them as this was my first encounter with them. but a friend kept one and he said it was fantastic. it’s in the grunt family of fish and grunt are delicious!

First wahoo I’ve caught.  Decent size and tasty too.

That’s a beauty of a fish and catch

[Giles]

Congrats…..

Popped out this morning.  Had my first Bass of the season.  No pic. But my mate had a couple too…..

Is there a storm forecasted (red sky in the morning)?  What a great way to spend a morning (friends and fishing).

[Giles]

No storms forecast….

My boss has a cabin on the north shore of Lake Superior near Lutsen, MN. He took us all up to stay for a team building/work trip. Why was I the only one who brought a fishing rod? No catches on day 1, but I’ll put some time in today too if I get a chance. Fishing for salmon, steelhead, trout, etc.

Beautiful scenery

[Giles]

Yeah, worse places to spend a few hours….

[Giles]

I'm on the South Western tip of Portugal with Paula, the coastline is amazing, but I've yet to catch…...It's a steep learning curve, never having fished like this before....All balls out on outcrops as far out as you can get, There's a 4-6 foot swell running and I'm regularly being dunked by rogue waves (I am wearing a life vest)....

[jordanscollected]

really beautiful @Giles even if you don't catch anything. Lake Superior didn't provide me any fish. I bet casting into that wind is just great too. Have fun and get swept away by the beauty, not the waves.

[goosehd]

That coastline is beautiful and scary looking at the same time.  Hope you and Paula are enjoying Portugal!

2oz lures does the trick

[jordanscollected]

Boy @Giles, this lure really can catch fish!
My nephew and I caught 5 bass, 1 perch, 1 bluegill and 1 northern.
Temps have been in the upper 90’s for the last week so it was really hard to find the fish and they were deep in search of cool water.
