man, if i'm having fun it doesn't matter what size fish i'm catching or even if i'm catching anything at all. i mean, yeah, it's fun as shit to catch a bunch of big fish, but it's not the main reason i go fishing. hell, if that was the case i could get by a lot cheaper by just buying them at a fish market.

I'm fishing a Fall Bass Tournament at Lake Townsend in Greensboro this weekend. I am sure it will be nice and warm at the 6AM launch.

10/27/2008 10:03:25 PM

honestly i dont even care about size...but when nothing is biting is what really pisses me off

10/27/2008 10:03:30 PM

fishing = drinking with bait and tackle

10/27/2008 10:05:03 PM

fishing isn't all about catching fish. If it were, it would be called catching.

10/27/2008 10:05:13 PM

lol to each their own...all i know is i hate spending 6 hours fishing and only getting a couple bites all day

10/27/2008 10:07:50 PM

Try fishing a 8 hour tournament in the middle of January and only catching 2 bass the whole day, totalling 4 lbs. And yeah, I actually won that tournament. Tough day.

10/27/2008 10:11:51 PM

or try trout fishing from 5:30 am to 3 pm in a 20 knot wind with spitting sleet. going out there's 1/8th inch of ice on top of the brackish water.

then try doing it and not catching a damn thing and loving every minute of it.

10/27/2008 10:17:07 PM

Yeah, we had to break ice to launch the boat at that tournament as well. and all day there were big chunks of ice floating by. Now THAT is fishing!

10/27/2008 10:19:23 PM

^What kind of boat do you have? Do alot of people fish that tourney at Lake Townsend?

10/28/2008 12:26:47 PM

^ YOU'RE THE LITTLE BITCH THAT NEVER RESPONDED TO ME WHEN I ASKED YOUR METRO BITCH ASS ABOUT KARTING.

WHAT A SHITFUCKING METRO ASS BITCH YOU ARE.

10/28/2008 12:27:34 PM

No, you cant go karting with 12 gauge slugs

10/28/2008 2:45:07 PM

well, technically you can. i would advise against it though. some karters tend to get in fights a lot and like to pack some heat in the pits. hell, my dad almost knocked a guy over the head with a pull-cranker once cause he was pissed he got outrun.



[Edited on October 28, 2008 at 3:25 PM. Reason : i outrun the other guy's son. clarification....]

10/28/2008 3:25:19 PM

thats why people carry those big ass wrenches in their toolboxes...you know there's not an 1 1/2 inch bolt on a go-kart...we called em "defense wrenches"

10/28/2008 3:49:38 PM

we kept a hatchet in our toolbox for that.

unfortunately it got used for some fiberglass work once or twice

before i started racing karts it hung in our engine shop and my dad wrote on it "Driver Equalizer: +30 HP" and directed drivers to it when they complained (jokingly) of not enough power.

10/28/2008 6:20:35 PM

Y'all make kart racing sound like fun. Maybe I could start an orphan kart racing team since I don't have kids.

Fishing on the other hand...Sounds like a terrible thing to do if all I knew about it came from this page.

10/28/2008 6:25:02 PM

kart racing was fun, but i would much rather fish. fishing is way cheaper (and we raced on a really low amateur local level). after about 5 years of racing, my dad and i both realized we (along with my mom and the bank account) would rather quit racing and fish more. so we sold our kart, bodies, tires, engines, enclosed trailer, driving gear, and all the related tools and had enough to upgrade from an old 20' proline CC to a brand new 18' polar tunnel hull CC with aluminum trailer and a 90 hp yamaha

[Edited on October 28, 2008 at 8:36 PM. Reason : ^it's not just for kids. they even have a senior class. i think it's 40 or 50+, can't remember.]

10/28/2008 8:36:10 PM

^Its just an "over 35 class"...i gave my dad shit for racing in the old fart class...

but yeah, it is expensive as shit. we raced the National Enduro series for a few years and realized we were spending WAY too much money and the higher we got into it, the less fun we had. Now, I just race with my friends at local dirt tracks when all the Nascar shit slows down. Fishing is definitely more relaxing than racing.

10/29/2008 8:08:46 AM

Going out of Morehead on Satruday if the weather stays the way they are calling right now.
SAT
N WINDS 5 TO 10 KT. SEAS 2 TO 3 FT

Hopefully some of the wahoo and blackfin are still around. Probably head south out of beaufort inlet though.

Anyone hearing any reports in that area?

10/29/2008 8:30:51 AM

Wanting to go out this weekend from Wrightsville...can only go Sunday...Saturday looks better though.

Sunday afternoon it looks like the winds might kick up.

10/29/2008 12:26:35 PM

Decided to make a suicide run to OI after work Friday. Either going to hop on a make-up or bandage up the Grady for a November swim.

[Edited on October 30, 2008 at 7:12 PM. Reason : Break out the ski masks. ]

10/30/2008 7:12:13 PM

no catches on the new boat yet I should get some pictures up sometime...

10/30/2008 8:10:34 PM

how many times have you been on it? it's been hard to not catch anything lately.

10/30/2008 8:18:08 PM

Headed down to OI tomorrow for the Fall Brawl... finally looks like a decent weekend for fishing, hope the kings are biting. Anyone hear of anything?

10/30/2008 9:17:04 PM

my old man's going trout fishing tomorrow and saturday. i gotta stay up here and get some stuff done.

10/30/2008 9:19:35 PM

lol other than the 2003 and 2004 3 day trout fishing license i've never bought a fishing license til today

10/30/2008 11:47:07 PM

^how much did it cost ya?

10/30/2008 11:48:32 PM

15 dollar bucks...prented out that junt

[Edited on October 30, 2008 at 11:54 PM. Reason : lol]

10/30/2008 11:54:38 PM

Fished the turning basin at Morehead port last weekend and caught lots of spotted trout and spot, sometimes pulling 2 fish up at a time on double bottom rigs and shrimp.

10/31/2008 12:52:07 AM

^spec trout....any size to them?

10/31/2008 9:39:34 AM

14-15"

10/31/2008 12:37:51 PM

14-15" is a solid speck. if they were hitting dead shrimp i would've loved to see what i could've done with them on some artificials. would've worn that ass out.

10/31/2008 12:39:30 PM

once i'm done with dinner i'm gonna put new line on my rod

10/31/2008 5:37:11 PM

10/31/2008 5:40:15 PM

10/31/2008 11:50:54 PM

11/1/2008 12:13:24 AM

they were cool about it. just told us to leave pretty much. they were on bicycles lol

[Edited on November 1, 2008 at 12:35 AM. Reason : and i might've caught less, but mine was the biggest. also had the biggest bite bout 10 mins in]

[Edited on November 1, 2008 at 12:36 AM. Reason : only because dnl keeps score ]

11/1/2008 12:33:37 AM

I'm so tired. Got off work about 11 and then drove to OI. Arrived about 20 mins ago...time to rock and roll

11/1/2008 3:40:06 AM

dad and his girlfriend kept 15 specks yesterday. they threw back anything under 17" and about 3 of them were around 23". limits are being caught in all the popular creeks right now. they're going back tomorrow.

fuck school

11/1/2008 2:18:13 PM

I'm still up, but we caught 1 Yellowfin, Tossed a Baby Blackfin back and caught about 12 tilefish before we ran out of daylight.

11/1/2008 10:03:31 PM

how cold is it out there?

Quote :

"lol we were fishing and they came by and said "hey the park closes at sunset" etc"

we've had our truck locked inside the park before because we stayed so late (no one came and told us to leave though). There was a cop driving around doing patrol and when we stopped him, he said he wasn't going to let us out and that we had to wait till the next day... so we just sat around and drank the beers we had left while we waited for my friends gf to pick us up

11/1/2008 10:06:14 PM

Lets see;

I had on, long johns, a turtleneck, t-shirts, fleece, hoodie, sweatpants, wool socks, 1 beanie, 1 watch cap, bibs and jacket, gloves...

That cold

11/1/2008 10:08:52 PM

yeah, i layer up like that for winter trout fishing. if i were to fall out the boat with all those clothes on i'd be dead if the water was over my head. we keep a boat hook in a gunwale rod holder for this situation. haven't had to use it yet though knock on wood.
