I use a 95 lb. braided line and a
50-100 lb. leader. I can haul in some
Monsters and I'm on a
Quest.......
I see you smirking, 95 lb. line,
but I'll wipe it off your face!
This
Guy's SOOOO Huge, I About Popped A Nut Styling For The Photo, BUT I'M
THE ONE LAUGHING
Paddlefish,
one of America’s largest freshwater fish, are popular among
many
Missouri anglers. These fish can weigh more than 100 pounds, and their
strength and speed gives anglers a thrilling experience.
Paddlefish, also known as spoonbill, have a long,
paddle-shaped
rostrum that accounts for about one-third of their body length.
Paddlefish are cartilaginous, which means that they have no bones. They
have small eyes and no scales. They are filter feeders, and they spend
most of their lives in open water eating microscopic animals called
zooplankton. During warm weather they can often be seen jumping from
the water.
I have a saying; "You never know
what you're going to pull out of the river!"
You
don't actually "catch" these fish, you "snag" them. I/We
don't
go snagging, we go fishing and it's all "catch & release".
OK, maybe I shot an Asian Carp through the
head,
but it was an exception. These paddlefish/spoonbill just
floated
up to the ramp for picture opportunities. We fish for Fun
and my
plans are to catch a few their size.
You just never know what the
river's going to give you.....
Jack was too much FUN and we also
enjoyed seeing James as always......
And NO, I didn't have a problem
Saluting James as the Disabled Americans Veterans Commander of Auxiliary
Unit #7, Carson City, Nevada. Give him a holler if
you need some help or questions answered, or just to say HI!
We've had the river property for
3 years now and thanks to a few
visitors, we've managed to have some FUN. However, now that
Sgt Mac's Dinghy Dock has amenities, our work is finished and we're
ready to start a new chapter, MEGA FUN! We have a whole 10
hours on our new RiverPro Jet Boat and a $35 GoPro Chinese knock-off
to record our antics. Below is one of our 1st attempts and
since, I bought her a
harness and the dogs all have life vests.
If you're not too old and can handle getting a bit dirty,
then you need to plan an adventure and leave the FUN to us.........
