agreed.
I'm thinking of buying the AE angler since I don't have space for a hardshell
feel like I'm getting cucked though since a hard shell that's half the price will be far superior

If you're on a river this is all you need. $4.50 from Walmart rn. Can use it to stand up on lakes too if you have good balance.
>>
>>2872194
ofc "effective fishing" is banned here
>>
>>2872195
old aluminum canoes can be had for like $300 or some used marketplace kayak or new pelican. that's cheaper than a few tanks of gas right now.
>>
>>2872195
Just buy a couple cheap kayaks and make a pantoon boat with it

Is hand reel fishing a meme? Convince me not to get into yet another hobby please.

New fisherman here. Is this a great place to fly fish?
>>
can't wait for this thing to get here
>>
>no thread title in OP pic
traditions gentlemen
>>
>>2872230
have you spotted trouts in the water?
if yes you could fly fish here, current look fast but not undoable
>>
>>2872236
Where the hell does one do fly fishing? Never caught anything ever with fly fishing rod. On the other hand, standard line with worms reels in fish every 5 minutes. Am I retarded?
>>
>>2872230
You can fly fish anywhere for any species. It doesn't need to be trout. Looks a lot like my home water. I'm just about to head out.
>>
>>2872241
OPsperg is at it again. He doesn't like sexy women, so he jumps the gun and makes threads early and is to lazy/autistic to do it right.

Anyone have experience with buying from usfishworld dot com ? I found a pole on there for a VERY good price and it seems almost too good to be true

Catch and Release>>>Murder and Animal cruelty

havent gone fishing in 3 years
i used to be the guy who demanded everyone hit the streams as soon as the snows melt and every single weekend even if there was nothing to be had
last week my old friend called me and told me he got this new girlfriend and because i have 40 years worth of gear and exprerience he wanted to loan my stuff to look cool to her
hopefully he gets a sloppy tent blowjob
>>
>>2872265
that's it
i'll early post next OP and it'll be even more daring
>>
>>2872271
if you catch a fish with a hook you might as well be murdering it anyway
>>
>>2872275
A slight poke in the mouth ≠ bashing their skull in and tearing their flesh apart
>>
>>2872271
Yeah sure if it's undersized or has eggs or whatever.

But otherwise the whole farcken point is you keep the fish and then

Gasp

You eat the fish too
>>
>>2872276
Depending how you've handled it and where you've hooked it. Even under perfect conditions, some species of fish don't have the highest chance of survival post release.
>>
>>2872269
seems like a scam site considering they sell shit like usb cables and candles also kek
>>2872271
all fishing is animal cruelty. that's why I quit for like 20 years. I picked it back up only because it's such a good outdoors hobby, but I fish with more consideration about the tackle and methods I use now.
>>
damn i didn't realize that we had that much hippies in here
>>
>>2872291
Seriously. Bloodlust is like a solid half of what keeps me fishing. I get antsy after a few weeks of not bonking something. Catch and release only is crazy gay
>>
>>2872271
Fishing with just the intent of just catch and release is the most cruel thing you can do while fishing. You are just doing it for fun as a sport which is cruel to the fish and disrespectful to nature.
>>
>>2872265
I didn't post early. The last thread was past the bump limit. Are you actually retarded?
>>
>>2872303
The last thread was still on the first page. Yes, you made the new thread early you autistic faggot.
>>
>>2872306
>first page.
Do you not understand what a bump limit is? Are you so much of a faggot that you do not use the catalog?
I'm going to keep making threads to trigger retards like you.
>>
>>2872303
>>2872308
It doesn't matter if the bump limit is hit and you don't need to use the catalogue if it's STILL ON THE FIRST PAGE!! You fucking autistic brainlet.

Exactly this. It's like hunting just for the fun of it and not actually skinning/gutting/harvesting your game.
>>
>>2872311
>>2872313
Muties like that are usually hatchery fish, the thing to check is the adipose fin (to see if it was clipped or not), but where it would be on Stumpy there is covered by a blade of grass in your photo. If it’s clipped, it’s always a hatchery fish, if it isn’t, it is either wild or was stocked as a fingerling instead of when it was grown out a little larger.

where's the big titty fishing girl picture????

skid's boyfriend hijacking the thread again
but i got you covered brother
>>
>>2872344
thnx bro, i love fishing.

the people chastizing catch and release are the same ones you see filling up a bucket with undersized catches and using live bait. I guarantee you a fish would rather me catch and unhook it than end up in your bucket. who in their right mind would eat most freshwater fish anyways, the fucking coast has septic flowing into it, let along the lake with houses lining it's shore. there is a reason these kinds of people have an average life expectancy of 55.

I don't cook much, so I kind of burnt the skin side. This is that one rainbow I posted last night. I kind of wish I kept another one. I rarely keep my fish because I hate to carry them around, but this was a twilight bank mini expedition. Good fun.
>>
what do game wardens do besides check the fishing livenses of middle-class law-abiding citizens? the same feral people litter the shore every single day and the warden can never catch them? speaking of littering scum, what posesses someone to literally unspool their reel and throw 100+yards of line on the bank? how low of an IQ must you have to do that? especially when a trashcan is like 50 feet away. I really believe people like that should just be shot. imagine what else these people do everywhere else. they must be operation with brain frequencies lower than a squirrel that runs under tires. they are the entire reason most old fishing spots get closed down.
>>
>>2872348
I replied to your last post as well. This is something that frustrates me, especially when I encounter these retards. I work in a sporting goods store. There are people who buy 80 lb line, get hung up, and cut their line. This one guy came in 3 times in one day to buy shit. I told him gently and politely that there are better options than 80 lb and cutting line. He wouldn't listen, and then, my boss tells me, "We're not the fish police. Don't say a thing."
>>
>>2872350
there are people who think you need a steel leader for catfish. I got some thick mono mainline with a catfish rig and steel leader stuck in my trolling motor prop before. I'va also almost got drowned by braid before that was wrapped up in some logs when I was wading waist deep. luckily I had my knife on me. it seems most people don't understand that your knot should be the weakest link in your setup, so that you can get all your line back when you snag. hell, if I was using heavy ass line like these retards I could just bend out/break hooks or pull up the whole log if I get snagged. I've brought up tree branches from the bottom on 8lb line.

>>2872346
my great grandfather fished almost everyday to put food on the table because he was poor and he live to the ripe age of 98
anything from carp to trout
>>
>>2872352
things were different back then. our great grandparents live into 90s, still walking till the last day, all with exposure to lead and asbestos. the shit we ingest now is far worse, and we don't even really know what it all is.
>>
>>2872355
actually we do, it's also lead (tho a specific oxyde mostly, and a lot less), PFAs (most of them are inert), and microplastics
it's still shitty but certainly not as shitty as the amount of lead and asbestos they had
also most of the world outside of the US have a lot less chemicals in food as it used to
>>
>>2872356
nah. there is clearly some kind of unknown shit we are ingesting. colorectal cancer is extremely high. granted it's mostly people who lots of deep fried slop.
>>
>>2872358
yeah this is a thing mostly in the US and everyone know it's your processed food the problem
>>
you literally cannot get skunked if the body of water that you're fishing has white perch. they are the most bloodlusted little fish there is.
>>
>>2872351
I’ve snagged into 60+lb braid with my UL setup, reeled in the line I snagged, and then handlined in the heavy braid to find their lure stuck in plain old millfoil, not even lily pads.

Some people are just cretinous retards.

Colon cancer is most pronounced in Japan, so it's definitely not an American thing.
