.Hugo.I meant drive home after drinking a bottle of makers and 6 beers haha

I did drive home, but it was eight hours later

...did have a couple of Horns Monks in me though

Today, I have some shit to take care of in the morning but from there I plan to go fish some t rigs til my heart is content

To beat me, you must post pics of you doing work and then catching bass on whatever bait you prefer

I concede this round, haha

i didnt catch a fish... haha

Starting at 12:01 am (within your time zone of preference...as long as you're there now), I would like to see who can catch the most species of fish by 6:00 PM

We have a pretty good group of folks here so pics aren't required but certainly preferred

Winner gets a four pack of my favorite local brew

Hint: I hope you like horny monks

I hope to have a largemouth, a pike, a perch, a bluegill, a chub, and a brook trout by the contest end

and remember kids...size doesn't matter, haha

Damn... Species? I'm gonna have to step outside my wheelhouse haha- if I can get out anyways. Tight week!

Trying to think of a lake where i can feasibly catch more than 3-4 species in a matter of a couple hours.... dont think its possible haha. Not that it matters its thunderstorming here all day anyways

Ha its all good. If i didnt have to work id just go to the mississippi. Can probly get 12 different species haha.

Ill come up with one for the weekend. Have to cool it on musky fishing per docs orders anyways

No way man, I love the challenge aspect! Seriously going to go hit the river by my shop later if I can, which I'm pretty sure I can manage today.

Let's go ahead and open it up until Sunday at 6:00 PM

Ok this one goes to the end if the season. First one to catch a 5lb bass gets a fishing related prize from me. Havent decided what exactly yet.

Does everyone have a scale?

I need a new one bad.

I'm all over that contest tho!

Huck_NorrisI need a new one bad.

Its not gonna be like a $3 bag of plastics or nothin either. Im trying to think of something unique.

Im pounding the bass here the next couple weeks too, so ya better get it before me haha

Y'all are going to have your work cut out for you in this multi species battle royale tho haha I went and hit two spots today and was able to make a panfish jig and chase a few of the little fuckers down.

Juvie greenback smallie

Teensy lil largemouth

Perch

You're my boy, Blue!!

Black crappie

Realistically the only ones I'll have a shot at to add to the list from here on out are catfish and pickerel tho.

I should jump on the species one but I barely ever get an hour to fish let alone a whole day. Within a half hour though I have a major river, many trout streams, many farm ponds, and several reservoirs. I bet I could get almost a dozen.

I caught all those in about 2-2.5 hours or so between work and dinner.

Well done sir, well done indeed.

I guess your lady is a tad more understanding than mine ha.

Looks like that crappie and perch could be dinner on their own, those things are pretty frickin huge.

Thanks man!

I BELIEVE IN YOU THO!!!

Hey theres a wager. Who can catch a decent sized fish on the oldest setup

.Hugo.Hey theres a wager. Who can catch a decent sized fish on the oldest setup

Cane pole and line only, huck finn tankara style haha. I'd totally go on that bet.

Well, seeing as I'm off for the next week or two I will participate in any wager anyone makes

Will be waking up tomorrow and trying to catch a fish on a cane pole with regular string and a hook made by eagle claw

Huck_NorrisI need a new one bad.

I'm all over that contest tho!

you better get on it. i found the bigguns last weekend. had 5 fish that were 4.5 plus but none hit the 5 marker

.Hugo.you better get on it. i found the bigguns last weekend. had 5 fish that were 4.5 plus but none hit the 5 marker

Gonna be tough for me to get out at all in the near future but I'll try!

In related news I just had a friend who is a trout guide tell me that he knows where there are "annoyingly large" bass... He said he's caught several 10+ and he's definitely not bullshitting me. Might have to bring my stuff the next time we head out that way. I guess nobody there fishes for bass but they get huge because of all the stocked trout. I looked at him like he said he had a unicorn farm haha a 10+ would be a lifetime fish for me.

Well dudes, I have a week or two between jobs to essentially dick off and will happily take one any challenge that I can attempt here in northern michigan

Until then, I'll just be out for a rip

If anybody catches a bass over 5#, I will send them a Heady Topper (provided you are 21+)

Perfect. Should be prespawn here and tomorrow is fishing opener so I can finally fish for something besides crappie. Should be the fattest fish of the year
