Oh I do. The reds if they are legal always come home. The big trout too.
The snook dont because they arent in season.

Agreed. I go fishing to get food lol. We have strict rules here on a lot of fish. So I usually only bring home 1 or 2, unless I go deep sea fishing.oki, just checking, I fish quite a bit, both in summer and winter, but never got the idea of not eating what you catch.
...Maybe its a florida thing, but theres nothing in the lakes or rivers I'd go out of my way to eat...
Love me some panko fried perch
Sounds delicious. We change it up sometimes and do them tempura. Keep the breading lite and let the sweet white flesh shine.I use 1 part panko with 3 parts Drake's fry mix. Pat the fillets dry then dip in a two egg with 1/2 a homebew mixture then dredge them through the panko/Drakes. Into hot canola oil and viola! Delicious. BTW, I really like a lot of different fish from both fresh and salt water.
If you fish the flats your essentially fishing docks, mangrove shorelines, oyster bars, grass, etc. It's similar to bass fishing I suppose.If forced to choose, I’d pick eating saltwater fish over freshwater fish. But I don’t dig saltwater fishing.
Motoring for hours on end over a featureless seascape just isn’t worth relatively brief time in the catch zone.
With freshwater, you’re generally enwrapped with nature as soon as you get out of your vehicle. If you need to hike for a while to get to the hole it’s a bonus.
Any y'all use a castable fish finder like Deeper or similar? I see the videos and reviews. Deeper looks good. I want to hear it from people I know are drunken fishermen.
Castable sonar now? Jeeze
2020 was supposed to be my year of fishing. From the jump it didn't happen - our March trip to Cat Island in the Bahamas for some bonefishing got cancelled and it was all downhill from there.
Did manage to do a few days of salt water fishing on our Cape Week with the whole family, lots of fish caught, a couple of stripers kept.
And I did get my boys on a small lake up in Cow Hampster a couple of weeks ago right after the NH F&W dumped 500 two year old rainbows in (we flattened our barbs and were like kids in an arcade for an afternoon ).
But that's it for 2020...
Cheers! (2021 sure AF better be better than this...)
i use vexilar t-pod on the skiff . i tie it on but it is also castable. it works great and is color . but it uses up the phone battery fast. a portable charger or an outlet on a boat solves thisAny y'all use a castable fish finder like Deeper or similar?
