What kind of water would you rather fish in?

[Fish-Bait]

What kind of water do you like? I love all of it! If I had to choose I would probably have to say my ole stomping grounds in the brackish water of the Pascagoula River. Fishing under the I-10 bridge in the fall of the year almost always produced a mix bag off Specks, Reds, Flounders, Bass, Shellcrackers (you can catch some big ol' shellcrackers down there) and I have even plucked a small shark out of the river just below the bridge about a mile. So, what kind of water do you like?

[amanda]

I prefer saltwater. I just love catching specks and reds. :)

I love Salt water or brackish water fishing, but about 12 years ago, I was on a chartered deep-sea trip out of New Iberia ( sp?) when we found ourselves in the middle of a quickly forming tropical system. Needless to say it was quite rough! After tying up to a rig that was struck by lightening and caught on fire, we were once again adrift in the "high seas". I promised the Good Lord if he would get me on dry land I would never go back....so, I haven't been back.

Now...I fish small Mississippi rivers. I love to fish Little River in Columbia. Nothing more fun that catching bass on a fly rig.

So I guess I am a fresh water girl now!

In general I prefer the flavor of saltwater fish.

Call me boring but give me a rod and reel, and a cricket on a nice farm pond. My Uncle owned a wonderful pond a mile down Elks Lake road from 49S. Mom lived on the land and I fished it for bream and bass.

farm ponds are for cane poles.

[amanda]

I don't say no to any of it! :)

[pEtAl mIsFiT]

i need to go fishing and just enjoy life a bit one weekend

Bream Busters are better. But I like ultra light tackle for bream.

Nothing quite like it Misfit. Leave your worries behind.

I primarily fish freshwater, but also find myself fishing the brackish tidal waters of the Pascagoula, Pearl, and Jordan.

[rooter]

I like to fish the islands and the offshore reefs and the oil rigs.

[gonefishin]

It depends on the time of year for me. In the spring I like to fish freshwater for bedding bass and bream beds. When things start to heat up I like saltwater. Just seems to be more action. In the fall I like the brackish waters of Pearl River.

[Fishing Girl]

Hubby & I will be fishing on the coast tomorrow. I hope we have a good day & catch a lot of fish.

[Honey]

My hubby fishes everywhere but I do my fishing in Lumberton at the catfish house every Thursday.

[SouthChic]

Doesn't matter to me as long as I'm catching fish. :)

[carsalesguy]

where is wet listed? maybe i missed it-----

[EricStratton]

I like the kind of water that will float a boat, so I can drink beer without the water getting in the can....

[Guru]

Saltwater, I guess I just feel the fish are "cleaner".
You can catch anything from a 3# MahiMahi for barbequeing to any number of 80# Lemon Fish or King Mackeral. There are larger fish but these have been the norm for me when I used to go.

[cubby 1]

just wanna go fishing....

I've noticed that you're very cerebral, Eric.:smt023

[fuzzis]

The only fishing I've ever done is freshwater. The last time I went, my uncle and I sat in same flat-bottom boat that I sat in with my grandpa when I was a small fuzz, drinking beer, casting out and catching nothing...but a turtle. :laugh: It bit him too.

We went home and he fried up some that he'd caught on a previous trip.

[Maggie-Doodle]

Actually I like either fresh or saltwater fishing...although I only started fishing salt water just a few years ago when I moved to the Bay...

LOL .....but fishing is the one time that I WON'T drink beer!

Statton is gonna freak out when he reads your post.:kekeke:

[Bahlk]

That's bound to violate some law here in the south.

[JimmyJam]

Salt water rules. My poor old bass boat hasn't been in fresh water for 2 years now. I do enjoy going to the spillway when the water gets up to flood stage and catching them big slab white perch and a cooler full of catfish. Too bad the water hasn't been right for the past couple of years. It's getting close to "Go Time" on the coast. If I can just hold out for a few more weeks...:ohnoes:

I gotta' get you into Hawkeye's school of Man's Land. It's gonna cost me, but I try to save whoever I can. Bless you CS, I hope you will enroll on Naktfish.

[TRIXR4KIDS]

Love the salt H2O but i get sea sick really bad really fast

[BiGCoUnTrY06]

BASS FISHIN!!! RULES
I would rather fish freshwater.

[RGDoherty]

I'm with you Big Country!

[sidelinetolong]

If you have not burned at least 35 gallons of gas you have not been fishing!

[RGDoherty]

I can do that in some bass tournaments

[bpitt]

I like to fish in the water that has the fish in it.

[dasmybaby]

as long as fish are biting and they're worth keepin' and eatin' i don't care what kind of water it is.
