Bit far North for shark isn't it?

I think if I ever end up back in Minnesota I may need to join my Dad on the occassional bass/sunfish round up. The man knows how to catch fish. The Gods know, he's had enough practice. ;-)

I used to live quite close to the Gulf of Mexico. I went fishing a lot before I moved.

I stand corrected.

Blue, thresher, and porbeagle. Although, I've gotta admit that I've never heard of a "porbeagle" before just now.

Occasionally, not really that much.

Three summers ago I went to the west coast by Oregon and went salmon fishing off shore. That was quite fun, except someone forgot to take his seasick medicine before getting onboard and the next thing you know there was a seasick epidemic. But I had taken MY motion sickness meds before coming out and made it through OK, and caught 3 salmon.

I really don't like fishing for little fish. That's one of the things I miss...fish around here are, for the most part, smaller that I like to fish for.

Although it gets cold enough most winters to go ice fishing up here. Mostly we catch little perch. On a sunny day, it's actually quite pleasant to sit on the ice and wait for those little fish to bite. I wouldn't go out if it wasn't one of those sunny days. And I don't go out unless the ice is nice, thick and stable enough to drive on.

We never have ice thick enough to walk on, nevermind drive on!! ;)

Perch are everywhere, from what I can see!
