What makes them memorable isn’t allways the most fish...
Mine that I still remember today
12 years old - Dad took me to a pond where we caught sunfish as big as a pie plate
19 years old - Upstate NY
- found a hole in a creek off Lake Ontario that had a 20ft hole with a massive old oak in it - Pulled huge Small mouths out it for a hour
- Rome / Utica NY area in the fall, used to fish the low head dams coming off the Erie Canal with lures and collobered tons of walleye and bass
- Rome NY in a creek by Griffiss AFB - had an old fart show me what flys to use on trout and limited out in 15 minutes when it started to rain, up till then I did ALOT of casting
- Spring walleye runs using shad raps in creeks where the eyes of your rod freeze up
27 years old - Crete Greece
- Pulling up red snapper (little guys but tasted better than anything ever) in 40-80 ft of crystal clear blue water.
- Spear hunting Octopus when snorkeling in the Marina and at the beach
Last couple of years -
- Spoonsbill fishing on the OSAGE river in missouri... what a blast
- Blue Cat fishing off trueman lake in the spring, we pulling in over 300lbs of fish in a couple hours
- Kansas City, KAW river - My fishing partner pulled out a 78lb Flathead catfish... wow
There are more, but looking back it’s been a pretty good run.
