severus 0 Posted August 4, 2004 Tyke: quote: The Bass family from the US OF A . I really like the small American baitcasting rods and i envy the yanks being able to lure fish for bass. I like fishing small lures for Perch and pike but would love to catch the hard fighting bass too. I used to enjoy catching smallmouth bass. They fight very hard and leap from the water a lot, much more than their largemouth cousins. Just like steelhead. I'd like to have bonefish here. I understand they're fun to catch.

I have seen photographs of a 186pounder caught in the Great Ouse in Huntingdonshire! The father of a guy I used to know caught it. *********************************************************** Politicians are not responsible for a country's rise to greatness; The people are.

Peter Waller 37 Posted August 4, 2004 I wouldn't mind seeing a return of fish that we have lost from our local river, like dace and rudd. A few barbel wouldn't go amiss either. The US Muskie holds a certain appeal! That would upset Mr Collins! Peterhttps://www.charliecarp.com.au/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leon Roskilly 25 Posted August 4, 2004 I must admit that I did get excited when I heard of some striped bass being caught over on the German side of the North Sea around 3 years ago - Nothing since though (Striper are a coastal fish, but happy to colonise freshwater, growing to over 60lb and fast) Tiger Muskies, a barren hybrid of Muskie and Pike would also make lure fishing quite interesting.
