Kribman Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Want to see what trophy you guys put all of your hard work into catching. I personally are an Esox/Bass man. Northern Wisconsin has a bounty of these fish to offer and I can't get enough of bass, muskie, and pike. Some lures you throw out, you never know what kind of fish you're going to catch.

RJT Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I spend the majority of my time chasing walleyes. This year I'll spend a little more fishing for smallies and muskies. I have one of the greatest fresh water resources in my back yard and plan to take full advantage of it. I also spend a little bit of time fishing for sturgeon.

BLT Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Saltwater anything. Went out for Tog in January for the first time. Great eating fish. Hope for Tuna Wahoo this year, and some nice striper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braided Line Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 How did I miss this? All my efforts are centered on catching BASS. Some days you look like you know exactly what your doing and others, you looks like a chump. One thing about Florida , as the weather is mostly nice (year long) you get to go when ever you want. If you have enough gas money that is. As I only fish lures (all types) you can bet I`d love to have some of the lures I`ve seen posted on here. Great stuff. To the guys who spend a lot of time "looking" out the front window during these cold wintery months, I`ll be thinking about ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kribman Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 I really want to get out salt water fishing some more.

Zib Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 I mainly fish for smallies in Lake St. Clair & NE Michigan. I target walleye in the spring on the Detroit River & during the summer on some inland lakes. I also fish for pike & last year started casting for musky on Lake St. Clair.
