one of my goals in life is to salt water fish.

I have salt watered fish since I was 3 years old..Its great on the West Coast of BC Canada. My grandfather lost an Original Alaskan Plug to a sea otter one Derby damn near made him cry"thumbsup"

Just trout. Usually fry them or sometimes on the grill. All other fresh water fish i release. Only been salt water fishing a handful of times for red's and tarpon with a guide. Was a great time though wish i could do more.

Oh and nice catfish

Well, down here we have some of the best, inshore around the mangroves, or off shore in the gulf with many different species.
You never know what you might catch, unless you're targeting a particular type, and even then you might get a surprise.
Take a look at what this fella hooked.

Nice cat. I fish the st. marys river in N. FL & when it floods we go to my buddys field & set bush hooks for catfish. last year we caught 227 in the week it was flooded. Not A bad week fishing & yes we ate all of them."thumbsup""thumbsup"

There is nothing more fun than fishing out in the ocean! "thumbsup"

I practice mostly catch and release. I keep a couple trout and couple panfish during the icefishing season. When I head to Canada on vacation I will keep some panfish, bass and walleye to eat up there. My favorite fish to eat hand down is walleye. Hard to beat breaded and fried walleye fresh out of the lake. Freezing fish kills the taste.

i grew up on the Atlantic fishing everything from spade fish and yellow fin tuna to mako sharks. i dont like to eat much fish, but the sharks and the chesapeake blue crab are very tasty .. the best part of living in this part of V.a. is the ocean and being a couple hours from corolla, nags head and hatteras island where you can reel in mako's off the beach. 8)

i once told my dad i was going to buy a boat
he said "you dont wanna own a boat you want a friend who owns a boat"
probably the best advise he ever gave me

nice cat by the way !!

we'll I live in Manitoba, Canada were far far far away from the salt, but we have lots of lakes. Love fishing for walleye and smallmouth and yes we do eat them, but we never go pass the limit."thumbsup"

love the cat, what time did you catch it? just curious

Love fishing for salmon. Love to eat salmon. Love to smoke and eat salmon.

Here's a 25lb king I caught a few years ago... not the biggest king, but it was the biggest that our crew caught that year.

I like to fish, but I don't eat fish. I'm just a catch & release guy unless I know somebody that wants fish, then I'll take some to them.
I love to fish for northern pike and trout mostly.

We fish on the average 3-4 times a week. Both Salt and freshwater. The bay is roughly 10 mins from the house. Halibut, Stripers, Sturgeon, White Bass, Leopard sharks, Threshers and 7 gills. Also get a ton of Mud marlin ( Bat Rays).

Freshwater we fish for pretty much everything.

Planter bow at the lake down the street.
