Re: Some fish we caught
I guess i was taught the old school way when it comes to catfish.... it requires a large hook attached to a chain.... and a pair of plyers.

Re: Some fish we caught
nice thing about those of us that live on the great lakes- you can usually find a friend/ relative with a salmon boat! it may not quite measure up to salt water fishing (ok, so its still a ways off :rolleyes:) but pulling in 25lb Kings is pretty fun if you get the chance!

Re: Some fish we caught
Nice fish! I miss fishing actually, I haven't done a lot of fishing since I moved out of OK. Having a pond in your backyard with bluegill, bass and catfish in it makes it so easy...
If I knew somebody with a boat I'd be interested in going out. As it is, I suppose I could drop a line in the rock river...but I'm not sure I'd want to eat anything out of it.

Where exactly are you in Illinois? I found several places to fish(lakes not river) by searching on the internet :gj:

I live in Rockford. In theory, I could go down behind the library with a bucket, bait and a fishing pole and sit on the bank. I've seen people out there fishing...dunno if they caught anything.

thats the problem with my job, its got me all into the big salmon/ trout already! i have an internship with one of the tribes up north, so i do all sorts of commercial sampling and studies right now. my only thought the first trip out this year was 'man, i really want to catch this guy on rod and reel' as i pulled 20+ lb trout out of trap nets.....
