Wow, nice. I've never been much of a fisher myself. I work on a campground/canoe rental so theres always lots of fishing going on around me, but I just haven't taken too much advantage yet. Too busy canoeing and kayaking.
The reason I ask if it was Beaver Lake in Arkansas though is because I use to spear fish in it. Back when it had water that is. With all this drought we've had this year, its too pretty low. But thats my idea of fishing. Actually going out and hunting the things with a loaded spear gun.
Otherwise, bring the beer. Because fishing sober is like hunting... sober

no
Beaver Lake in Washington State.
in the new town of Sammamish...used to be in upper Issaquah.
---
I almost had the Washington State record...for Large Mouth Bass.
I caught this large Bucket mouth at Lake Fenwick, I swear it was around 14 pounds...in Federal Way, Wa.
(Lake Fenwick is where the fishing pole company "Fenwick" was started)
I got the fucker up to the dock...and he jumped up and spit the lure out right in front of my face.

That really sucked...I wanted to be in the Record book.
Oh well...maybe someday!~

Wow, who in their right mind in this day and age would name a town Sammamish? My guess is shrooms were involved.

That's definitely a cool way to fish, but most of the fishing I do is catch-and-release. I don't want to release the fish with man made gills

I agree on this fishing part, as far as hunting drunk.... I'm scared to hang out with some of my buddies when they're drunk with loaded weapons in their hands! They do enough stupid shit without them!

lol. Too true. I was just backwards quoting SouthPark. The episode where their redneck uncle takes them hunting; rule number one is don't spill your beer.
"Hunting sober is like fishing.... sober"
Then again, do you want a drunk redneck shooting at you, or a sober one. I'm sure the latter has a better shot. .. I totally agree though. Nothing quite ruins a good field party like someone pulling out a rifle and waving it about. I feel uncomfortable around guns of any nature. SHIT, fishing poles even scare me. I'd hate to get poked in the eye by a worm on a rusty hook.

Treble hooks are the worst. 4 barbs of fury! They will hook to anything, mainly any t-shirt that gets in their way!

I just got a mental image of a medevil spiked club tied on the end of the line. Now fishing really freaks me out.

As long as the thread starter doesn't mind the off-topic discussion, I'm okay with it. This is his thread, so I'll leave the decision up to him or her.
