Show off your fish

dwalden2: Where is blue ridge georgia at? We gotta be kinda close, I like in east central Alabama. Just west of Rome

 

Option 1. Start a photobucket.com account. Upload your photos there. Then copy the IMG link they provide for each photo and paste it into your reply. Once you submit your reply the photo should show up. It will only show up as large as your original but sometimes if the photo is really big the forum will automatically re-size it to fit the page.

Option 2. If you already have your photos uploaded to the internet somewhere. Go to the website that has your photos then right click on the image you want to post and select "Copy Image location". Then paste it into your reply and add to the end of the link. Don't include any spaces and add the tags exactly as I typed them. If you miss the forward slash in the second tag or if there is a space it won't work.

-Hope that helps

 

About 2 hours to the nearest beach in my old S10 I could make that trip 10 times before needing gas in the taco I can go about twice.

We finally got our boat ready, my father and I, the wiring, bilge pump, seals in the motor, wires for steering all needed replacing due to corrosion from the salt water but we've got everything ready to go for this weekend. I'm heading down to Edisto to hang out with my friends in high school and go fishing just need to pick up a hitch and wiring loom for my truck. I love a Yamaha motor it's been siting for about 3 years and when we started it the other day it cranked for about 5 seconds before turning over. LOVE YAMAHA MOTOR'S!

 

Dwill: We're in the center of the state, as far north as you can go. I can drive 15 minutes from my house and be in Tennessee, or drive about 15-20 and be in North Carolina.

 

Caught 15, no huge ones though

 

Ah I see.. your right in the foothills of the Appalachians. From the picture I've seen you've got some nice trout streams around there. We have none, so I was hoping you were a lot closer. Lol

 

Reptiles and Amphibians are a big interest of mine, and I believe what you have there is called a Hellbender Salamander, the largest Salamander in the world next to the Japanese Giant Salamander.

They are very cool, and pretty rare anymore to my knowledge. Take care of them, they need all the help they can get! Very cool catch, and hopefully clean release!!

 

Haha...yea, right at the base of the Appalachians. Fannin County is the "Trout Capital of Georgia." There are good trout here, but nothin like out west. I'd love to head out to Arkansas for a week or so.

I hadn't seen any in a while, but now the last 3 trips I've taken, I've seen one every time. I let him go back on his marry little way after I took a couple of pics.

 

How do you like that Penn?

I wish we had some nice trout streams around here but we have absolutely nothing. But I do have 2 lakes within 30 minutes of my house (Weiss Lake and Neely Henry), a river about 15 min (Coosa River, but considered Neely Henry), and another lake about 45 minutes (Lake Logan Martin). So I'm set for all the bass and crappie I can catch. I just love to fly fish and really wanna try some trout streams.

 

Pretty Cuttthroat caught on a quick trip down to the river on my way home from snowboarding.

 

Thanks for the info!

 

man I have been gone for a couple of days and this thread blew up. Nice looking trout, bass and thats a huge salamander..... caught one this year too but he was humping my bait not biting it..

 

I like it a lot so far. I've been using it in both salt and freshwater and it is holding up really nicely, better than my Shimanos did.

 

Hmm.. Always nice to hear real user reviews.. I'm gonna check those out.. I'm kinda rough on my equipment and hate to buy really expensive tackle because normally I wear it out or break it.. If you don't mind me asking how much do one of those run?

 

Moar fishess As soon as photobucket will upload!!

 

This one was about $140. If you are looking for something a little cheaper I would look at the Penn Fierce. They run $60-90 depending on size and get really good reviews, I have one of these too and really like it. FWIW I know alot of fishing guides like to use Penn for their customers as they really can take a beating.

 

Started some of the wiring today..going pretty smoothly so it should be ready by the weekend if our parts come in.

Threw some rods in the rod holders to see how they sit..beautiful








Cobia aint got no chance now

 

Maverick, the boat looks great!!!!

 

nice!! tower looks great! now go catch some cobia! im still trying to catch my first of the season. have you thought about putting a rod holder on each side of the tower facing forward a little? i think it might be a little easier to grab a rod facing forward when a fish is spotted than turning around and grabbing one and you wouldn't have to leave the rod leaning on the against the tower
something similar to a rod holder like this
