Fishing season 2k14!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Chicken livers, or some cut up fish will work. I cut up fish nd let them sit in the sun or let them sit in some chicken liver blood....we were literally hooking them not even 30 seconds after they hit the water. We'd cast out, go to sit one rod in the holder and by the time we got it to the holder, it was fish on.
Conowingo Dam is a wonderful place!

I've still yet to try livers since they're so hard to keep on but maybe I'll make some of those bags you can put them in while on the hook. I've used cut bait before but never caught anything, then again that was in places with just small bullheads so maybe I'll try them somewhere that there's more predatory cats.
 
Easiest to use them from a boat. No weight, just a hook going through the liver and basically just toss it a few feet out sideways or underhanded. If you try to do a regular cast it will just fly off. I know a lot of people use womens stockings to keep them in and then put a hook through that. I think that is a good method when fishing from land...going to try it this weekend. Everyone says flatheads only bite live bait...definitely not true.

Slow evening on the lake today, was hoping for some rainbows but only baby smallmouth biting.

Anybody hooked some trout recently?

The Pacific Northwest fall salmon run is going to be insane.

Buddy and I went 10 for 12 from the bank yesterday in six hours. Had to release all chinook and wild coho. Craziest salmon/steelhead fishing I've ever experienced.

Hammond/Astoria area. I'll probably get out there again on Monday and Tuesday to camp. It's 2.5 hours each way so I got up at 2am to time the tides right on Wednesday...
 
Forgot to write my report from last weekend, although there wasn't much going on. Slowest weekend this year since beginning of May. Only caught 16 fish total with 6 of them being gobies. I caught 3 decent sheapheads (14-20" and 3-5 pounds), yellow perch (10"), a pumpkinseed, and two bluegills. Also brought up my friend for the first time to erie and he only caught a couple gobies, a yellow perch, and a white perch. I suspect that left a bad first impression for him so next time I'll bring him up in mid may-late for the best fishing of the year. Going up 1-2 more times (this month) this year before we pull our boat out and going to go to the creek mouths for steelies, hoping fishing picks up.
 
Went home last weekend from college and gave the Schuylkill river a shot outside of Philly for flatheads. Fished Saturday night for three hours with two runs both misses. Sunday night fished 5 hours by myself and went 3/5 on fish. One channel and got my first flathead at 30" 15lbs
