Just fishing...turn on the tunes, slowly go from brewed coffee to brewed beers. Brother-in-law is gonna set out his hoop nets on the Red River, and join me on the lake. He’s gonna be catching...much more labor intensive than fishing, but I’ll join in his labor when we pull the nets on Thursday.

If I was in a catchin’ mood, it will be large mouth bass...kidding aside, I’ll be pitching a bubblegum worm. Odds are good I’ll be catching.

Do ya care for trout fishin’?

I used to live in Florida. Caught an 11 pound bass when I was in 7th grade. Fished in the Atlantic ocean too. Caught a wahoo that was 55 lbs, many dolphin (mahi mahi) up to about 50 lbs, sea trout up to about 12 lbs, red snapper and grouper. Of course many others were caught along the way like sharks.

Here in Colorado not as much. The trout are small, but have caught a rainbow that was about 3 lbs. Cought a tiger musky that was around 48 inches long and no guess on weight. I live near a reservoir that has lake trout that can get really big...maybe 50 lbs. Have not tried for them yet.
