Members Ryno Posted November 2, 2009 Members Posted November 2, 2009 Setting the legal issue aside, your original question was " ... would all the local fly fisherman bad mouth me and run me off ... ?" From these responses, I guess the answer is no, not all of them. But I am surprised that someone hasn't commented on the trout mortality issues associated with intentionally foul hooking a lovely fish that might break loose before you got it back to the bank. I would think that hefty scars along the back are not a good thing for the future lunker population. So I offer a contrary opinion that some of the more conservation minded Taney fishermen would not be very supportive (myself included). Best Regards, -Two Sheds Two years ago I saw two guys fishing rapalas BIG ONES, they were ripping them through the water and snagging every fish they had on...even though this might not have been "intentional" -Ryne "set the steel to em"

I have only fished taney a couple of times in my life. I'd much rather boat fish it further down the lake where their not stacked in there like cordwood. later on My friends say I'm a douche bag ??

I'd much rather boat fish it further down the lake where their not stacked in there like cordwood. later on I don't recall anything about snagging in your original post. Not sure what 2sheds is referring to. The only place you will find cordwood fish is within 30 feet of an outlet. I say do what you originally stated and let others take care of themselves. Give us a report.
Leonard Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Hey Brownieman.. Time for me to chime in and stir up some sh... stuff!! Whenever your ready... you bring a rod big enough to throw it..I'll bring the lures... Might want to put on some 20-30lb line... ***OPPs... here it comes... BLAH BLAH BLAH.... trout wont hit on anything over 4lb line..HEHEHEHE... This weighs 4oz... and is 10inches long.... Want a big brown... I'll help you catch one!!! Just let me know when your ready!!

brownieman Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 Thanks Leonard, I generally throw big baits, no less than 15 lb. test on a muskey rod with a Shimano Catala level wind on it. I'd love to lay into a 20 lb. plus brownie...your professional opinion, what's the odds down there? If the fish beats me and gets off I reckon he deserves it...I'd enjoy the battle though. Thanks...guess if need be I could tie on some 4 lb. leader, lol. later on My friends say I'm a douche bag ?? Avatar...mister brownie bm <><
patfish Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 If you two are going to fish together then I'm coming down just for "the show"! It will be Branson's new greatest distraction.
brownieman Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 Couldn't resist Leonard, My old eyes aint that bad...that last pic sure don't look like no brownie, lol. thanks, that one woulda been a blast too. Later on Patfish...probably more like a circus, lol. My friends say I'm a douche bag ?? Avatar...mister brownie bm <><

brownieman Posted November 6, 2009 Author Posted November 6, 2009 Leonard, If I ever stumbumble down that direction gotta feeling I would enjoy hooking up ya. They know you...they might throw rocks at me, lol...would do my best to get off by myself so as not to embarass...you or me. I really don't know the place at all...the way we fish do you think a guy has a chance of hookin a 20 lb. plus brown ?...that would be a blast to say the least, I'd bring a couple changes of underare just in case, lol....heck, I'm gettin kinds used to those depends, pretty nice on a cold day...probably make good paddin for sitting on for us boney old farts, lol. Believe me, I've had enouph of that "You Idiot" look to last me a lifetime, lol. I know I'm an idiot...don't bother me abit...don't know why anyone else cares or is thier business I did my best to teach my kids not to give the ,challenged, gifted, whatever is PC word is now, don't look at them any different than anyone else. Sorry, ramblin again...we'll fish sometime Leonard later on My friends say I'm a douche bag ?? Avatar...mister brownie bm <><
