GEEEEZZZ !!! Dave now your Flossing mini Lobsters now  ::)

Oh yeah i got 2 or 3 big chum so not that small

I had a spring in the morning but being picky that I am I didn't want a pic with it or keep it. Lost what appeared to be a spring jack in the 5-6lb range this afternoon after you left freak. Oh and after you left about 8 other guys all of a sudden showed up at our spot  ::)

We need rain so I can fish other rivers where their is not a crowd on every piece of water.....

I'll make an intelligent guess of the secret bait & technique to catch that - bar fishing or dead drifting with fish guts....  ;D ;D ;D

I fish those with a trap in the states all the time, they are actually really good.

You would need about 100 to even fill you up. I know I wouldnt want to have do all the work of cracking the shells from 100 of those for a meal LOL

You know what, after I let him go I actually thought to myself, "Hey, maybe I should have used him for bait, nothing else is working!!" ;D ;D ;D
 Big T, I'll take that as a compliment, I think!! :-\ ;D ;D
 Just for the record I did connect with somewhere around 4-5 fish and was able to bring in a Decent Chum and a Sockeye ???!!  Was a fun day nonetheless!! ;D

How do you catch one of those? Aren't they on the bottom?
Title: Re: Big Steel's BIG catch of the day
Post by: Geff_t on October 02, 2006, 09:01:11 AM
It is pretty obvious that big steel was not short floating as those are found on the bottom of the river usually under rocks. Must be getting desperate for a fish. And as for his secret spot it was a secret last year during steelhead season but now I do not think so. To many people have been brought in there. Oh well plenty of river to fish and more spots to discover.

In Big Steels defense he was just trying to find bottom and than after he got that he adjusted his depth.

Should have included the stealth float with that.. Maybe would have won those three floats with that huge catch ;)

We used to catch those up in the sloughs around Hope as kids with little pieces of bacon. They would hold on to the bacon  even after we pulled them out of the water and placed them in the bucket. We let most of them go after we watched them swim around in the bucket for a while. One day we kept a few and pan fried them with garlic and parsley butter. Dam good, would feel too guilty about keeping enough to make a meal now though.
