they focus on out breeding rather then being picky

Wonder if they can pass that knowledge on to their spawn

those types of places are always diaper zones around here. people just trash fishing spots that are close to the city

Cause they've been like that for years in that little pond

@Deleted User Oh yeah, but the bluegills eat everything the geese won't

People will feed the geese and crumbs will get eaten by the bluegills

take a orange beed place it between 2 pieces of worm and i bet you ten bucks your will out fish 10 people at that spot

Bluegills win, everyone steps in goose shit

I have to use a net for them, honestly

Faster than waiting 20 minutes each

And it's catch and release there anyways

they think it's a night crawler came up from below they hit it almost as soon as it hits the water

i'll have to try that sometime

huh

Well, beats getting wet trying to net them

I'll give that a shot later this year

I'm getting sick of the Snappers going after my feet when I try to net a fish

I usually try for catfish around here though, throw out a couple lines and relax for a while.

They're getting aggressive lately

Yeah, catfish are good sports

sooo glad we dont have many snapping turtles out here

those things scare the shit outa me

I'll send you one if you want to pay the air fare

Like a foot wide big enough?

i've gotten a few while catfishing

Aw, don't hook em if you can avoid it

I always feel bad

they just find it in the water

i dont really want them

I try not to fish near them

Or I switch to the net

But most of them are too big and old to get "caught" either way

Liable to pull you in if you hooked one

i caught a catfish when I was a kid and before i hauled it up my brother warned me it has a defensive mechanism, and i fell for it thing cries just like a baby

lol

I had one stick me with the fin once

Never again

i fish in a pretty big river, so it doesnt happen that often, but if i leave bait in the water when catfishing, they will find it sometimes and get hooked

they dont sting up here

Lucky

Gotta grab them by the tail near me
