Why Fifty Million People Fish
27
What sends a person away from the comforts of his hard-earned home to fight insects, rain, cold, and other disasters in the name of fishing? There is a curious rumor that fishing is idyllic and pastoral, that it rejuvenates the spirit and excites the blood to high adventure, that it requires high intelligence. My experience has been otherwise. Your boat leaks. It rains. You fall in the water, freeze, boil, hook yourself, hook your partner, lose your equipment, catch the weeds, catch pneumonia, lose more equipment, snarl the line, get bitten by flies you can’t see, miss the big one, and hear, inevitably, that you “should have been here yesterday” — or last week or next month. If you return alive and sane, no one believes a word you tell them; … Read entire article »

Do Fish Scents Make Sense?
22
There has been a lot of controversy over "Fish Attractants" or otherwise known as "Fish Scents". In the past, I've noticed that many of my former bass angling students as well as my bass guide clients have always come prepared with plenty of "Fish Attractant", and wow! do they ever use it. They will grab that particular bait they are using, hold it over the boats edge, and really pour it on. Is that method really practical? There are several different types of "Fish Attractants" on the market today in a multi-billion dollar industry where bass fishing is concerned, and the marketing is very costly!, and somewhere the companies have to sell, sell, sell, to make up for the high cost of marketing. Many commercials whether it be TV, Radio, Magazines, Outdoor Shows, … Read entire article »

Alligator Shoes
9
A young blonde was on vacation in the depths of Louisiana. She wanted a pair of genuine alligator shoes in the worst way, but was very reluctant to pay the high prices the local vendors were asking. After becoming very frustrated with the “no haggle” attitude of one of the shopkeepers, the blon…de shouted, “Maybe I’ll just go out and catch my own alligator so I can get a pair of shoes at a reasonable price!” The shopkeeper said, “By all means, be my guest. Maybe you’ll luck out and catch yourself a big one!” Determined, the blonde turned and headed for the swamps, set on catching herself an alligator. Later in the day, the shopkeeper is driving home, when he spots the young woman standing waist deep in the water, shotgun in hand. … Read entire article »

Ice Fishing?
7
A blonde wanted to go ice-fishing. She’d seen many books on the subject, and finally, after getting all the necessary “tools” together, she made for the nearest frozen lake. After positioning her comfy foot-stool, she started to make a circular cut in the ice. Suddenly —from the sky— a voice boomed, “THERE ARE NO FISH THERE!” Startled, the Blonde moved further down the ice, poured a Thermos of cappuccino, began to cut yet another hole. Again, from the heavens the voice bellowed, “THERE ARE NO FISH THERE!” The Blonde, now quite worried, moved way down to the opposite end of the ice, sat up her stool, and tried again to cut her hole. The voice came once more: “THERE ARE NO FISH THERE!” She stopped, looked skyward, and said, “Who are you — God?” The voice replied, “NO, I OWN THE … Read entire article »

Perfect Shore Lunch Or Backyard Fish Fry
6
Tips for that perfect shore lunch or fish fry with your friends in the backyard: Gut and clean those fish right away and keep them as cool and clean as possible. Small fish cook better and taste better than big fish. - You’ll need a good seasoned cast iron pan. Yes, a cast iron pan. While the pan is cold, pour in a good amount of oil. Peanut oil has no taste and doesn’t create as much smoke as other cooking oils can. Put the pan on the fire and get the oil really hot. Test it with a piece of bread – if it sizzles and toasts almost immediately, it’s hot enough! -Take a paper bag with a little corn meal or flour and a dash of lemon pepper and shake 1 … Read entire article »
