How do you get your native fish?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
A large brained primate, net and hands. Used to include hard liquor, when you get to the point of putting down a liter of vodka in an hour it becomes time to remove that from the festivities.

Rod and reel and by hand. A milk jug with the top cut off works great

Just make sure you rinse it out before you toss it in the truck. I tossed one in one day and planned to cut the top off as needed. Yeah there is always a tough of milk in the bottom to funk up the place once you cut that top. It don't come out either.

You sir, have good taste in fish.

Its part of my job to collect fish. Seine, electroshocking, traps.

Whatever gets the job done.

Thanks for all the help guys! Wish i still had my saltwater tank tho, because ive only been fishing saltwater and would be awesome to keep fish caught....since im finally moving next week i could prepare for a larger tank. Too bad i dont know where to start fishing freshwater here in new york...

Btw fleshy, how does electroshocking work?

Electro shocking is just a group of electrodes, normally 6-8 on each pole with 2 poles, that dangle into the water depth depends on target sp of fish. Then a small electrical current is sent from one to the other. This creates an electric shock and stuns the fish close by. The stunned fish float up and you net them. Then place them into holding tanks on the boat. The DNR uses this for studies as well. Need permits for that. The stun only lasts for a few seconds and then they snap out of it going back to normal.

They also have back pack styles for this with a similar set up.
