Quote from a Bass fisherman

[pryan0225]

We were taking about places to fish in a lake I never fished before. I was talking to my "soon to be ex" friend who favors bass fishing. I asked him where all the walleyes might be.

His response:

"I see the walleye guys all around but they don't know what they are doing. They are all live-bait fisherman"


aaahhhhhhh

Aw, you just have to remeber with bassers you're dealing with
the "unwashed" :stirthepot: just tell him bass ain't so smart,
you catch them all the time and pitch them up on the bank -
then enjoy the facial tics this should provoke.:rotflmao:

I fish bass now and then for the fight, and just about anything else just for the tug. Until a few years I killed all the dogfish I caught until I realized that I was fishing for fun and the dogfish gave me more fun, so now I look at dogfish as a better sporting fish than the bass and release them all. I might even target garpike, gonna kill them. I think I am becoming like my Grandpa, he would fish for anything, anytime, but favored perch and pike and was a master at both.

I was also told by a buddy that I was fishing for "Stupid fish."

It's funny how all these guys ask me where I'm running into the monster bass when I'm out trolling.

I love to get a rise out of these guys... just tell them something like, "Are them largemouth good eating!!!" I didn't know there were soooo delicious!!! Dynamite on the grill. That'll shut em' up.

Let's see. Which fish is smarter and harder to catch? The one that will hit a chunk of plastic dragged with a 1/2 oz. sinker in the weeds 10 ft. from the boat (OR) the one that you've got to finesse with live bait in deeper water 50 to 100 ft. from the boat?

Sounds one-dimensional. I like to fish both, depending on the type of water and the time of the year. Here's what you do - take him out fishing for walleye on a hot bite. I bet he's never been out so he has no frame of reference. Of course, he'll have to start using his head which may be hard to do (just forget telling him about NOT lipping them).

I like fishing for both bass and walleye. There's nothing like the fight of a big smallmouth. On the other hand, I enjoy fising for large walleye too. It just depends on what kind of mood I'm in that day. Or, sometimes I'll fish for both on the same day.

I have never found a Walleye that was dumb enough to bite on a Chevy hubcab with a treble hook attached.:cheers:

There is not much finesse required to catch walleyes. I accidentally catch these fish all of the time. The big fish at the bass tournament this weekend was a walleye. Too bad it did not count.

Sounds like a type of racism, I like fishin for all kinds of fish but would never slam someone because they enjoy fishing for bass more than walleye. I knows its all in fun though. And being a ex tournament fisherman for both species I can say it was tougher to place in a bass tournament than a walleye tournament but that was 10-20 years ago. Lots of great fisherman anymore.
