The New “What did you do with your Z today” (with off topic replies) XXXV

Rusty

I've done both. When ever the opportunity pops up. I'll go fishing, either salt or fresh. Ever do fly fishing? That's an art form.

I'm one of those that likes to hook and bring in ASAP lol too many times have I used a light test line and the line snaps and losing out on what I am assuming is a nice catch. I typically used a 60 lb braided test line, so unless it's a big@$$ shark, I ain't losing it.

I give respect to those that can master fly fishing. I tried it once, and didn't have the patience for it lol

Rusty

For a Christmas present one year. My youngest stepson got me a guided fly fishing outing on the San Juan river in NM. We had a blast.

you just have to know how to use the drag and let the fish get tired! My salt water go to is 30lb braided with a 20lb flouro leader. Unless theres barracuda

Have you ever fished for giant squid?

That was the problem lol. I'm not used to casting with what feels like a paperclip as a weight and so much slack, and then it not going where I want it to go. It got ugly really quick

And I've never purposely fished for squid, but did catch a small one while casting for bait. I never realized this, but those small black dots move around on them. Pretty fascinating.

lol..You have to match the rod and action with the line weight of the bait/lure youre using. I had to practice in the front yard for a while til I got the hang of casting with a casting reel.
Yeah, thats their camoflage. Their color pattern will match their environment. And they can change their pattern pretty fast!
When you pull up an angry giant squid (up to 20lbs), theyre red, sometimes flashing red. REALLY MAD and squirt ink all over the place We would have ink wars on the boat..lol
But when they die, they turn white.

See this sounds like fun! And I am gonna youtube this about squids turning red LMAO!

Fly fishing....not so much my cup of tea. I cast, and the lure would go a completely different direction than what I intended (sometimes, the line wouldn't even go out at all). Then the line would get all tangled/snagged and I didn't know what was going on. I tried to reel and give the pole a little action, and the pole didn't seem to like this very much. I got by a damn fishing pole lol

Rusty

Just wait until you catch a copperhead. That was interesting.

My middle stepson hooked one when we was at Table Rock Lake in Branson. Told him if he tries to bring it into the boat. He's going to be joining it in the water. That was a pissed off snake too. I cut his line and let the snake go. That sucker went right for the boat. That snake got beat with paddle a few times.
