Catching a fish on a Rubber band
From July 19, 2024: I've been wanting to try this for quite some time. Back in February I saw a video of a guy in Scotland catching trout on a "maggot" fly made from a rubber band. I tied a few for myself and have been waiting for the right day. Today was that day.

Things to think about while fishing in summer
Переглядів 30712 годин тому
From July 17, 2024: Trying to beat the heat, I took the kayak down to St. Mary's Lake this morning. Paddling along the southern shoreline, I was able to catch a few smaller largemouth and a few bluegill. While doing so I decided to give you a couple of things to think about, so SCHOOL is in session! #fishing #kayakfishing #summerfishing
Nice to be home!

From July 16, 2024: Going on vacation is a fantastic thing! Visiting places, sight and more importantly people you haven't seen in a long time is definitely worth it. But coming home and sleeping in your own bed just hits different. Despite high temperatures I walked down to the beach this morning to see if I could catch a couple of fish. I also shared a little about the trip that I just got ho...

With the closure of the striped bass season coming in a couple of days, get out and hit y...

From May 7, 2024: I have used this technique I learned in Florida a couple of different times. I believe that it is called a "Goofy rig" and consists of a banana jig with a teaser hook. I tip the jig with a piece of @Fishbites in an attempt to catch bottom feeding fish like croaker and spot. Today something else bit! It was another "knot tester!" #fishing #chesapeakebay #invasivefish

    Great video. Hello from Canada. I just love grubs. Some of the things I like about them are, they are way easier to acquire and keep in good condition opposed to live bait. They work on pretty much every species of fish, you can imitate anything a fish eats with them by changing the colour and how you fish them, you can fish it in almost every way, lots of people don’t throw them so fish are typically not used to seeing them. They work scented or unscented if you have allergies or going into restricted waters. And they are usually pretty dang cheap.

    reminds me of a place, deep in a ravine. I was about 30 and there were native brook or brook trout not big fish but they were there, I thought I was seeing things. The water was cold and clear. The one thing that I remembered, it was in the high 80s when I started my hike and it was, i guessing about 67 in that bottom . I went back a couple of times, seems that ravine got deeper each time. Just thinking it was close to a perfect place.

    How far south are you talking? I've caught redbreast out of the Patuxent and Little Patuxent rivers, the Potomac river and I know I've read about them being in the Anacostia. As a side note, redbreast have been a frequent catch for my brother and I recently. We fished the Gwynns Falls in southwest Baltimore twice the past week. First trip my brother caught 67 fish over 3-4 hours, mostly redbreast, I caught 35, mostly redbreast. Second trip he caught 31 fish, 26 of which were redbreast. I caught 12 fish, 9 of which were redbreast.
