What are you hunting/fishing?
-
The first weekend in June I am going on a 3 day fishing trip to the Chandeleur Islands on the coast of Louisiana. With the liberal limits on fish in Louisiana I should be good on fish for the rest of the year.
-
Headed to Kingman State Lake here in Kansas to try to get a pike or two caught. KDWP stocks pike in that lake with some fish confirmed at 32" in length.
RafterW Who stocks pike??? We have an abundance here. We are taking hammer handles out and limited to one 24+" a day. Let the pickling begin
-
Picked up a new rod for stream and small lake fishing. Primarily targeting trout and panfish with this rod. It is called a Tenkara rod and telescopes down into itself. It extends to 11.5’ and a 10.5’ line is attached to the end with 2’ of leader/Tippett. This is a reel-less fly fishing setup, which is highly portable and lightweight.
RafterW Nice rod. I have been looking for something that I can pack up when I am out on two wheels

YooperDog Love pickled pike, we used to catch them and my Dad would pickle them. He thought the hammer handles were best for that.

YooperDog I don’t believe pike’s native range includes kansas, at least not south central kansas…maybe up north.

YooperDog TenkaraUSA is where I picked that rod up. There is a kid on youtube who fishes with that style of rod, he peaked my interest. I’ve got a fly rod but just struggle with adding line and casting, this is supposed to be more intuitive to learn. TenkaraAddict is the channel on youtube, I believe.

PapaSop All I used growing up until I was about out of high school with Zebco 33 and 733. I hauled a lot of pounds of catfish and bass in with them. They sure don’t make them like they use to.

PapaSop I still have my Popeil Pocket fisherman, used it for jigging through the ice.

Only worked four hours at work yesterday and decided it was just too nice to not go fishing one last time before the shores open up and you won’t be able to get out on the ice. Temps were in the upper 40s with lots of sunshine. I met my brothers and one niece and my only nephew. We cooked sausage on the ice and caught lots of fish. Lots of small perch and I caught one small walleye. The air was full of the sounds of Spring. Geese flying and honking and roosters (pheasant) sounding off! It was a great day and one that refreshed the soul!

ND Mike Just returned from a trip to MN, the temp. got down to -20 when we got there but warmed up to 40s when we left, ice and snow was melting. Saw all kinds of wildlife, deer, swans, ducks, geese and quite a few bald eagles. On the drive across Neb., I saw that the snow geese were headed north.
