Whodat Posted April 10, 2007 Posted April 10, 2007 Went down this morning really cold in the water and seined up above the railroad brigde. Only got about 14 whites 7 walleye's, all small but 3 males 18 or so. I am surprised crappie get that far up, but whats caught is caught. Had one good sized catfish too! Fish fry this weekend.
Bill Butts Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 What do you mean that you "seined" above the railroad bridge? Bill Butts Springfield MO "So many fish, so little time"
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted April 11, 2007 Root Admin Posted April 11, 2007 Surely not. Seining means taking a long net and harvesting fish by netting. I think you got your terms mixed up.

Whodat Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 No we didn't have a big net,hell the water is to deep. Most were caught on jig& minnows. The whites were smaller and the walleyes were caught on jig & nightcrawlers. I have seen people seining down there in the past years trying for bait but not in water that deep.
Dutch Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Whodat I guess these guys aren't up on Ozarks colloquialisms. I have seined the bank a few times myself from the front of a boat.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted April 11, 2007 Root Admin Posted April 11, 2007 I knew you didn't but wanted to head off a firestorm... you know how some guys are... Man I'm going to have to get down there and fish. Sounds like a great place.
SilverMallard Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 So what does a good ole boy from the Ozarks mean when he says "seined?" I grew up in the Ozarks and East Texas in a family of avid hunters and fishermen who trapped, netted, gigged, jug-lined, trotlined, hunted, and fished for subsistence AND sport. And when I read "seined," that means netting baitfish to use for trotlines, jug fishing, or live bait fishing on rod and reel. So please enlighten me. I'm always eager to learn something new and both language and fishing are particular areas of interest to me.

Dutch Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Seining the bank means getting all the fish that are catchable and not letting the guy in the back of the boat get a bite.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted April 11, 2007 Root Admin Posted April 11, 2007 Makes sense. Kinda like "Buddy Fishing". That's backing the end of the boat your buddy is fishing from into the trees when the fish REALLY start biting.
