got any threads locked in here... been stirring the pot too much I'm afraid :whistle:

Just gonna go back to my way of fishing and when I post a pic of a fish I catch that I consider a trophy, I hope nobody comes in and calls it ugly, trash, or the like....

Been getting a slight itch to catch me a new personal record fish. More specifically, an ugly, frown-faced, poop-colored smallmouth bass. I know of a couple new holes I need to try them out.... Carp fishing is gonna slow down. Give those beautiful golden fish a rest for the season. Mainly going for bass, panfish, and catfish this winter.
 
Catman- you are Tndeer's official hemorrhoid. There are a lot of people on this site that you could learn from and that would probally take you fishing if you would would act a little more mature.

I dont care what I post a pic of, I dont want it called trash, it was my fish that I was happy to catch.

Call me when you graduate from the junk fish i might would take you on a striper fishing trip.
I'd have done that already if I had a boat to access the striper hole below old hickory dam. Might be doing that with a friend next year. As well as some sauger or something along those lines. I don't graduate from junk fish. I just enjoy catching fish...
 
Straight from Wiki:

Rough fish (or the slang trash fish) is a term used by U.S. state agencies and U.S. anglers to describe fish that are less desirable to sport anglers within a limited region. The term usually refers to larger fish species that are not commonly eaten, are too rare to be commonly encountered, or are not sought after by anglers for sporting purposes. Many of these species are very important in the commercial fishing industry, where they make up the bulk of commercial food fish catches in inland fresh waters.[1]


Lighten up. I would be offended if someone called my mother "trash" but you can call a fish I caught whatever you like. So, you keep chasing "trash" fish and I'll keep chasing "game" fish. Good day!
 
:D are we really having this debate or trash fish and smallies AGAIN!?

fish ain't like girls... in a fish, I often look for a good fight, good size, and don't care as much about looks... that's not exactly my taste in girls though.. lol

It's fishing.... a day out on the water catching a fish sure beats a day at work, right? Even if it's only a bluegill, or a 20 pound carp, or a few crappie, or a couple channel cats, or a 4 pound smallie, isn't fishing supposed to be about enjoying the outdoors catching fish?
 
Its a comparison,not an exact comparison.Yes its about catching fish,you may find as you get older,targeting a specific fish,is more fun than just throwing out a worm and see what bites,maybe not.

You dont need a boat to catch stripers.

probably not but who knows... I already go out specifically for one fish on certain trips, and other times I go for whatever bites, and worms don't make up more than 1/4 of what I fish with usually. I've seen guys a lot older than me fishing for "whatever bites" so I hope I stay that way, even though there's nothing wrong with targeting one species, I just like to catch a lot of different stuff
 
Sometimes, ugly fish or even ugly women ain't all that bad. :D
