Great report! :)
If the snapper had been just a tad bigger would have been really good fried. Love me some fried snapping turtle.
thanks Sam -- you diggin in a way back yonder hole aint ya??
Nothing wrong with a little old school fishing, thanks for the pics and report. Regardless of size, snappers are mean.
Good report. I have been tempted to pull out a cane pole for some bream and crappie fishing.
Them worms have about eat all the leaves off my trees , we used some last night catfishing, them broad river cats like them.
Plenty of cane around here where I live. Haven't fished with one since I was a boy. Thanks for the reminder that one doesn't have to have the most expensive rig to fish and have fun!
Hard to beat catawba worms for bream. Anybody have any tricks for keeping them for long periods of time?
I freeze them in water, I put them alive in the refrigerator let them die then put them in water and fruit fresh, still using some from last year. Once I unthaw them I keep cool and disgard them unused after the trip.Quote:
