What is the neatest thing you saw while out Hunting or Fishing.

Sometime in the late eighties, when they were still pretty new, (to me at least --I'd never seen one), while fishing off Sam Clemente Island a couple of FA18 Hornets did the "straight up and out of sight" thing for our boat's viewing pleasure.
I've had F16's do the same trick when riding my bike thru the desert while on my way to fishing. Always a treat.

Coming home at night from commercial fishing trip went by San Clemente Island and they were having bombing practice. That was pretty cool to see back in the late 70’s

Is freshwater bass considered good to eat?

Eastern sierras. 3 to 4 hour drive. Streams and lakes all the way to Nevada border are all fun to fish. I spent 100’s of days fishing up there over 50 years till I moved out of the state

What types of fish or seafood do you consider low quality?

Love all fresh caught sea food. Draw the line at farmed fish of any kind for 2 reasons
1. Steroids antibiotics and damage they do to bodies of water
2. Spent part of my life as a commercial fisherman and will always support them 🤷‍♂️

When to Lower/Tighten your Drag

Agree! Fished bottom fish also and usually 3-5 hundred feet deep with 5+ lbs of weight. Mostly with rail plates on the rod so they pretty much needed to keep rod parallel to the water!

When to Lower/Tighten your Drag

Running sportboats on the west coast for many years I saw my share of lost fish to operator error. Two biggest mistakes were 1 fooling with drag while fighting a fish and 2 (the biggest mistake) not holding the tip of the rod up. When you don’t hold the tip up you are fighting the fish with your reel not your rod. Just my 2 cents

Hi all. Been fishing all my life. Worked on sport boats in So Cal as a kid and commercial boats as young adult. Eventually got a master mariners 200 ton close costal license. Ran charter boats on weekends and worked construction till retirement. Ended up in Arkansas and still fish. Beaver Lake mainly and still learning the lake.
