G,
Kastmaster hooked up 4 nice 13” last night.

Now, they aren’t touching it or worms. The White RT saw a little success as you saw....Back to a worm. I need to sit for a spell. 😎

Try some Velveeta. Corn is probably illegal there now too?

Another trick was a size 16 gold treble hook, a Pautzke's Balls O Fire egg on each point, and a mini marshmallow slid down the line to cover the top of the hook and keep it off the bottom............almost always worked.

If I was smart I'd check to see if that pic has a geotag on it!

Come and swoop on all your fish one night.

Renegade will help me with the trotlines!

Any inlet and outlet in the pond?

Water looks nice and clear.
Fish might be smart to people on the bank also.

Renny,

Yep, straight to the ocean bay. Limited run of Cutts make it up into the pond. About 1/4 mile fish swim is all.

Good eyes on that 😎

Same here. Small garden worm hooked once, no swivel, no sinker, drift under overhanging banks/roots. Can't do it now here or you're a poacher and risk campfire scorn. Good thing I still have a freezer full of venison or I might starve. JC ain't gotta worry. Could live 6 months from fat reserves.

I’ve fished this pond for 48 years...Some of Pops ashes are in her.

Aside from the mountains to my East. This is one of the only places I find some feeling of peace.

It’s been a great little pond for giving a man or kid a good time with a bobber or spinner.

I am sure you could just beat up the Food service guys and take their stuff.


Right killer?

If I ever make it up that way again I'd love to see your mini refuge.

Nice place for Dad!

Geno, can you find these on the shelves?



Nice pond Beaver. We had a nice pond like that too. Several dry years and then a hard winder took care of that.


We basically lived down there, Grandpa and I.

I used ta hate latching into 5 6 7 ft alantic eels in the penobscot river.

Hated them muthaphugga,s.

Had one bite the bottom of my foot when I was 12 swimming 1 day


My dumb azz standing on an engine block out by the boat bouy in pushaw lake.
Coksucka was inside it.
Fugga,s got some type of anticoagulant in their pieholes.
Had ta go to eastern maine med center get the bite cauterized and got 2 pints of blood .
Cauterize was not fun....

All my friends cut their lines if they hooked an eel.
I got a fancy belt hatchet just for them fugging things.
Never let one go after I got bit from one of those pricks
Chop them bytches toss the parts in the fire.
All my buds laffin their azz,s off while Im chopping the things up.
We was stoned and drunk out weekend camping all the time anyways.
Eels didnt get a pass with me.

Some of them fugga,s get big .
Like calf width on a man 6 ft or better long
Stupid little bowtie fins on their heads...


Hate them fugging things.

Their used to be eel wiers in rivers to catch em en masse
Ship em to boston, new york and other schitholes.
Skins for attire wear and supposedly the Puerto Ricans eat em.

G,

We got a couple houses in this neighborhood to let you and your wife rest and enjoy the area...Happy to put a fishing pole and beverage in your paws anytime.

Ren,

Beaver’s don’t do eels, ever bro! That’s for hardcore rednecks that enjoy fisting big blue catfish.

Give me a pole, hook and bait...Not my Damn Arm! 😎
