Only a week away.

Went down to 18 mile creek this morning, caught 2, both were about 20 inches, on jigs. Cant wait til we can keep em. Even with the lake frozen over its nice that some of the streams and major tributaries are flowing.

Poor trout, don't you know they feel pain. I bet you are the kind of guy who would kill an elephant just for it's tusks, or poke the eyes out of a kitty cat!

Not too many wild elephants here. I dont hunt, I just fish. I dont take more then I need. And I humanly put each one I keep down with a sharp knife.

FUNKED, that stuff belongs on PETA boards.

actually, it fits in well right here. You fish by casting with a rod. He fishes by trolling this board.

And I'll bet YOU are the kind of guy who wears pink Bermuda shorts, too.

The waters in my state, Kentucky, are so polluted, I wouldnt dare eat any of the trout. The state regulations says to eat only 1 fish per month due to PCB contamination. I know of at least one professional scuba diver, who after diving in the Kentucky River for a month, contracted a very rare form of cancer, presumably due to pcbs.

But catch and release is cool.

Same for lake Erie. Its one fish a month due to its bad history with big industry. (Buffalo river was flamable at one point in time) We only take the best looking and the ones we catch in areas far away from the city.

How sad that you need to wait for a 'season' to fish for trout.

Yeah it is sad. Depressing even.

You can fish whenever you want, actually... but carving tubes in ice and dropping a lure down them aint much fun.

Instead, over the winter, ya tell war stories with other fishermen, ya hunker down and tie flies, ya get all yer equipment ship-shape, and when spring hits BOOM you rock the rivers.

I'm kinda new to this, but I'm not sure (real) fishing would have the same sort of magic if I could just do it whenever I wanted to.

One of my Dad's favorite rhetorical questions is, "Would fishing be more popular or less popular if they let out a blood curdling scream when you pulled them from the water?"
