No-tourney freestyle smack talking

Bluegill in the winter are sacred baits. I'd tell someone about my best striper hole, but my winter bluegill holes....forget about it. I need to get my arse in gear and beat joel's salmon for bragging rights.

I need to get my arse in gear and beat joel's salmon for bragging rights.

Brian.....river salmon don't count cause IT'S JUST TOO EASY......the fish are stacked up in a river no wider than my ass and are only going one way. That's just too predictable.  Just leave 'em alone to spawn - they deserve it    I suggest you leave my record alone and try for Stripers instead (sorry Sean)

Sean,

When you catch your little mini-ling, send me a picture and I'll photoshop it to whatever size you need to sooth your ego.  

Brian

Mol Basser......thought we'd be hearing from you right about now.....

I was thinking the same thing.

ahhh, then i've got my double secret squirrel winter striper spot- might even be worth the ticket...and i can recall HUGE, MASSIVE linesides hanging there...

s

hey Steve...why don't you go ahead and PM me this spot...cause I think I know this area you're talking about      

Brian-I was thinking I might actually need your photoshop help to shrink it down so it will all fit in one picture.  Besides, if I don't win, at least I made your Elk fish worth another 5 bucks!

hey guys don't forge about me and...oh ya my halibut.

I wouldn't be talking to much smack about you halibut if I were you, seeing as your only in the lead because of a technicality  (I forgot to pay up before I went fishing)  I won't be making that same mistake next year.

You all no bluegill is illegal for bait rite.

The bluegill thing has been discussed in the Warden Mckiver section at coastside several times.  They are legal to use on the delta when taken with a dipnet and not transported (or something to that effect, reading those regs makes it seem like they can be taken with hook and line now... sec.4.05 should clarify........I hope).  Not legal for use on any other body of water, I think thats where the confusion comes in.
