Paulus Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) You know, even during a fishing trip, sometimes a guy gets bored... While munching on one of those yummy harvest bars (the ones with the peanut butter in them) I saw a rather large hen steelhead hanging around, just beneath me, under a bridge. It was almost as though the poor thing wanted a piece of my bar... She looked like she was begging, like she was soooo hungry ... So... I pulled out a couple of roe bags and... bon appetit! p.- Edited April 13, 2010 by Paulus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Doh! Paul you found Edna! The gouge on her back is an old rodeo injury. I trained her to eat my roe bags! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

l2p Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 thats awsome! reminds of last years opener well actually before but me and my buddy mike were scouting rivers to hit up after opener and came across a shallow run STACKED with fish, naturally we wanted to see if they would hit anything so first tried digging up a worm and tossed it in. man ive never seen a worm disappear so quickly in my life, we argued about how the worm just fell to the bottom so mike spts his gum out shapes it into a worm and throws it out there... not even a second before it hit the water a fish had already risen to take it as it was falling. such an awsome feeling.

The poor spawned-out thing looked tired and beat. So I thought I would give her a little to eat. Her reaction to the offerings was really funny and neat. I hope she enjoyed her little "celestial" treat p.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A wordsmith-swordsmith-wordbuckler! Have at you, fiend! I thumb my nose at you!

With charges in tow Walked up with tickets in hand With the poacher now caught And justice now sought The Court ruled a fine of 8 grand Nnnnice! The Roe Bag Sonnet Let me not to the catching of chrome fish Admit such poor judgment. Roe is not Roe That sits at home forgotten in a dish Or is chum for the chummers we may know. O no! It is an ever fresh/cured bait That looks on pools and is ne'er shaken. Prepared of various colour and weight, It glides in streams til it has been taken. Roe's not bass food, though Solopaddler's hooks Within their barbèd arch have caught a few But tempts again even the trout that spooks, When hordes of hungry rubes have all passed through. If this be false, so that I've sinned: I never fished, nor no man ever 'pinned. p.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
