The hunting/fishing thread!

[Ursuline Chick]

Some guys unravel a piece of nylon rope and have one end tied in a knot on a fishing line, twitch it and it looks like a fish swimming around. When they bite it the threads get tangled in their teeth.

I have heard of that, I have never tried it, though. Have you? And how well does it work?

Never have. I've just used jointed Rapalas.

Yes we did eat very well. Caught brown trout in spearfish and rainbows in legion lake.

Butter, garlic, sazon seasoning, & grilled on a charcoal grill.


Trout n eggs in the morning.
Trout & fried tatoes dinner.

Took the rainbows to my uncles in cheyenne.

I have. It works great with needle nose gar. I’ve never got a strike without catching the fish. Alligator gar are harder to catch, they don’t have as many teeth packed as closely together as a needle nose so the rope doesn’t tangle well.

Did a paracord wrap on a couple of my daughter’s surf rods. It turned out pretty good I think. They like it anyway.

Thanks. I had to order four different patterns until I found the right Goldenrod color that matched the reels.

Praying for beautiful weather here on the 22nd. We are going deep sea fishing, with who I think is the best charter boat Captain, at least in our area. Been out with him many years ago and caught a bunch of Black Fin Tuna as well as other fun and yummy fish.
I caught a 42.5 lb Amber Jack (It almost pulled me off the boat.).
This time we will be looking for Swordfish, but some nice tuna, grouper or tile would be nice as well.
Making sure the kids have what they want and need, I need to purchase a few things for me. I am getting really excited and I think DD and BF are too. I know DH is.
We will leave mid day wed, check into hotel in Venice, LA. Meet with Peace. (charter captain, and yes that is his real first name, his name is Peace Marvel and he loves what he does as well as being great at it). If you are interested in checking out what we will be up to, look up. Peacemaker Charters on the web or face book.

Good luck to y’all! Take pics of the monsters you catch. Tomorrow, I’m taking the girls on the last fishing trip of the summer. We will be going after catfish this time.
