Glad you got a bunch Scooperdude

I fished Cane Creek on 12/27 without a bite in three hours but did see someone cast netting bass, which is probably why the game warden was there.

Thanks for a great day on the water! The boys and I really enjoyed it

Yes, white perch and we caught the biggest ones I have ever seen.

They are in the creek mouths now but sometimes they are holding very tight to the bottom. So you really need to look hard at your...

Took my sons out on Lake Norman on a perch jerking mission on Friday.

Lost count somewhere after 75 fish, but we got into them hot and heavy in late afternoon fishing in 28 feet of water. Fish...

I have caught and eaten barracuda and they are pretty good, once you get past their smelly skin.

Ciguatera toxin is a real threat however. It can not be detected and can kill you if ingested. ...

Some of those fish look familiar. Must have been one helluva captain to put you on fish like that, especially the second day :D

Drift socks work well just remember to pull it in before driving off so you don't run it over

For guys on a smaller budget, you can take five gallon buckets and drill holes in the tops of them to...

None of the crappie we caught had eggs and they were deep, so either they were males or they have spawned out already.

What we lacked in quantity we made up for with quality and variety.

Fished in Reids creek on our skiff today from 1:30 to 5:30

My sons and I caught a wide variety of fish including:

4 white...

I don't post much here, but have learned quite a bit from reading others who do. So here is my report from high rock last weekend.

Took my two sons out in second creek and we had planned to fish...

Really enjoyed having you out there Pete

Nice fish, I have fished that spot a few times myself.

WRT to fresh water gear in saltwater, like mentioned make sure you thoroughly rinse with fresh water as soon as possible.

Also, coat all...

Stocking up on grouper bait?

LOL!

Dang, guess my phone broke!

Lake Norman has always been a small fish lake because of the lack of forage. A 20 inch fish when compared to stripers from other lakes was lighter by as much as 20%

Now though, with the white...

Look for a humminbird 383 c

It is a combo unit, full color, transom mount transducer

I got one for just a hair over $350 late last year and installed it on my skiff. Only have used it twice...

As long as you know what you are doing is illegal and the people paying you take them fishing know that they are doing it illegally then do whatever you want.

Splitting costs is legal. Charging...

I seriously hope you are joking...

Hiring a non licensed captain is not only illegal but unsafe, never mind unethical to all the licensed captains that jump through all the government hoops to get...

If you are interested in a gulf stream trip, you are not talking about live bait fishing for kings. Gulf stream trips are trolling from 6 - 12 knots with dead baits for tuna, wahoo, dolphin (Mahi)...

The fed government is exerting more control over fresh water now too, so don't be surprised if the federal fish banners start on your favorite lakes too

Are you all aware that the fed government...

Pete
Enjoyed having you and Jeremy on board. Definitely had a good time.

That fish in the box isn't a silver, it is a big knobbed porgy. We did get some silvers though, but all were too small...

I have a Mustang manual inflate that I wear when I fish alone or fish in my skiff.

It is very comfortable and I love it.

I am a former commercial shellfish fisherman and have run a few seafood markets, so take this for what it is worth...

First off, keep the oysters off ice directly. Ice, especially if the oysters...

The way it has been explained to me by both the WRC and by the DMF on separate occassions is that if you have two people on board and two rods that are fishing (in the rod holders with bait in the...

Was good seeing you again Scooper Dude!

We were blessed with the ramp antics of a few dozen green carpers on the way in. No wake, what does that mean? Big wakes rocking little boats with kids,...

No problem Treed. I think I understand what you are talking about now.

I never got into tournament fishing. Have fished two. One on norman and one offshore.

In both cases we caught fish that...
