what is your best fishing spot where you live?

i used to envy the guys that live near fantastic bodies of fish-able water.

the big bass lakes, the awesome ocean flats, world renown trout rivers..etc.

i grew up in El Paso Tx. desert. we had Elephant Butte Lake 2 hours away. near a town called Truth or Consequences. that region didn't have much of a "catch and release" mentality..mainly because a white bass is so delicious. . we would bring back lots!! but that meant fishing was ebbs and flows. skunk-city was a very real thing.

i kinda stopped fishing when i moved to CA, mainly because i left behind a younger brother that OWNS a bass-boat. fishing from shore seemed so anti-climatic to me.

then Covid ---> then Covid-Boredom. i started shore-fishing again, and i kicked ass. now i own a kayak. and i started looking around. looking outwards.

CLEARLAKE!! #3 bass producing lake in the USA. what??!!! looking more and more, we have awesome waters around me. Timber Cove is producing huge LING-COD.

game on!! i am going to do it all. i have a good kayak that can go big lakes to the ocean..i just need more experience and a mentor to show me the ocean ropes. and sea-sick ear patches.

what's around you?

 

............(crickets)...........Sorry but you should know better than to ask that question.

 

The Pacific.

 

Fairway Market.

 

funny. i noted Clearlake. the Pacific is the best answer really.

and i never asked for specifics.

 

Enjoy each fishing adventure brother!! Each one gonna give you insight on what you need to do next or not! Iv taught myself what to do in situations as bait and technique as with you tube.... patience is key and a tablet to keep notes and such.... moon phase fishing.... google that... that’ll keep ya busy for skittle bit as to when to have your best chances catching what you’re going after.

 

Lake Erie and the Rocky River OH. Some of the best walleye and steelhead fishing and both are around 5 minutes from my driveway. I love it!

 

Near the closet beer store.

 

For salmon and steelhead it gets no better than the Klickitat river, not to mention the picturesque beauty along the way.

 

Favorite fishing spot? On the water. Talking about fishing spots in an open forum is like talking about Colorado over-the-counter elk units. It's a good way to make sure they are crowded in the future.

 

Shhhh I'll tell you in a minute.....my gps coordinates to follow stay tuned!

 

Nice Timber is cove is nice! Just climbing down can cost your life HAHAH!!!

 

My favorite fishing spot? At my pond. This is my grandson a couple of years ago.

I live on 5 acres with a 2 acre pond that wraps almost all the way around the house. In the evenings when the sun goes down and the wind sets, I grab my rod and reel and in 60 seconds, I'm fishing. I don't always catch one of these, but I usually catch a few bass and then go back inside and have a glass of ice tea. Life is gooood.

 

That's the life! Do you ever eat what you catch in your pond?

 

"That's the life! Do you ever eat what you catch in your pond?"

Only catfish. Never bass. Bass ALWAYS go back in so they can get bigger.

 

This is fantastic wanted to through up a goofy emjoy but ya'll look like good peeps. I wish I had this in my backyard! Good for you bro!

 

hope they are released for another day and or for another angular

 

I rarely take out catfish, but when I do.......

 

WE want a pic of your POND!!!!
