Braggin Board for Fishing!

I know fishing goes hand in hand with hunting and I am honestly surprised that there isn't a "braggin board" for it so lets see those fish! Any catch from a dink to a monster post it up! Tell us how, where, method, lure, fly and whatever else you want too! Ill start it off, I love bass fishing and that's honestly what I spend most of my weekends doing. I am blessed and cursed to live in So Cal but this is one of the few blessings.

Nice bass! Fun time of year when they are in beds!
 
I dang near strictly fish for catfish. Channel cats to fill the freezer and giant flatheads for fun. I only run a Passive limb line set. 10 foot of 250lb test line with a two ounce barrel sinker attached to a heavy swivel. Then a 9 inch leader and a 8/0 double action hook. I’ll use cut bait or small live bream for bait. But I’ve found bullheadcatfish to be deadly on big flatheads. Plus, the bullheads seem to stay alive in the hook a bit longer.

This isn’t glamorous, it’s generally quite gross and filthy. It isn’t “sporting” and you’re not ripping lips. I do this to fill freezers and take the burden off people I care about. I don’t have a lot of money, otherwise I’d make all my friends and neighbors millionaires. But I have an excessive amount of time and like giving catfish away to people who aren’t able to get on the river.

Catching fish on set lines is totally sporting in my book. Just like trapping.

Good on you for sharing with people. I've gotten out of that habit lately and need to get back to it.
