How to **** off the family...

"Don White" wrote in message ... "HK" wrote in message ... I use light wire circle hooks for drift fishing and bottom fishing in the Bay. I've always got a rod handy for sight fishing or to cast a lure into a pod of breaking fish, but on those lures I do not use circle hooks. Gave up trolling for fish years ago. I just can't tolerate the mindlessness of it. Sure doesn't seem like much of a 'sport'. Throw out a line & hook... drive boat around slowly until some hapless fish gets snagged. ........ and people say watching sailboat racing is boring.................... Until you have 3 tuna hit your spread at the same time, or a 35lb bull dolphin grey-hound across the top of the water, I really can't explain the excitement that trolling brings to fishing. And I don't just "throw out a line and hook". I have anywhere from 4-6 rods out at a time that we're constantly working/adjusting, two of them off outriggers. Meanwhile, the captain is constantly looking for temperature breaks, upwellings, debris, weedlines, rips, or birds working schools of fish. This isn't like pulling a little Rapala minnow behind your johnboat in search of a 3 pound walleye. I wouldn't do that, either. :} |
