Misfit Lives around columbus but went to florida to catch the Flathead bait he has in the picture. yum yum

[MISFIT]

i went to cocoa beach for a couple weeks this month just to prove a point to the toad:D
since he can't catch fish around here(or anywhere for that matter)he thinks when i do it's pure luck,haha.
so i told him i could go anywhere and catch anything.even flathead bait in floida:D

and flatheads in ohio

Those palmeno (sp?) make great King Mackeral bait!!! :)

I'm looking forward to getting back into fishing for King Mackeral once I move to NC.

Misfit,

I was just curious if you lived along the coast.

What part of Columbus do you all live around? I'm originally from Johnstown.

TF

[MISFIT]

Mc Naughten rd.next door to reynoldsburg.i used to hunt deer in the johnstown area.got my biggest buck there.
i have friends in cocoa beach and a stepson in the tampa area,so i go down a couple times a year.good excuse to fish the salt:D ;)

those pompano make great table fare(much better than mackerel).no way i'd waste one feeding mackerel at 20+ bucks a pound:eek: :eek:

[Thunderflight]

I have relatives that live in Reynoldsburg. My cousin is on the police force.

You know I think I was wrong about using pompano for king bait. The fish we used looked similar, but we called them hard tails.

The Kings loved em!!!!

[MISFIT]

i thought you might have made a mistake in id.the pic isn't the best:rolleyes: ;)

cop cousin?maybe i've "bumped into" him at one time:eek: ;)
i've known several over the years and went to school with a couple.graduated from and spent most of my life in/around the burg.
what does your cousin think of the "chief"?:rolleyes:

[flathunter]

Rick, you went clear to Florida to fish for Shad?:eek: :D

[MISFIT]

:D :D :D yeah,but it sure was warm down there;)
didn't see one ice fisherman all the while i was there,lol.
when the weather gets like that here,i'll have some bait:D

[Thunderflight]

Misfit,

My cousins name is Steve Baughn.

I haven't spoken to him in about eight years. Shoot for all I know he could be retired by now.

TF

[MISFIT]

[Toad]

Oh how sweet it is. :D

[MISFIT]

i'm ready to rock and troll:D
any bets on who boats the biggest eye this year?no,deb ain't included in the bet:rolleyes: :p ;)

[Toad]

I would say for bragin rights but we do that anyway. :D I think the bet should be for something we love as much as life itself........ FOOD

[MISFIT]

ah..........food:cool: :D :D :D

Z-fish you can't even catch bait out of a minnie bucket so how you going to woop three ol' pros like us? :rolleyes: Mike I'll take frys with mine and some of them onion things they have.

T-Bone I launch at cranberry if the lake is calm cause coming into that narrow channel with 4fter's hitting your boat in the side can make ya pucker for a week. :eek:

Ray I would rather be 250 and a non smoker than the 215 that I am with a pack a day habit.

[Links r Us]

Hey boys, I was at the Lake Erie Charter Captains Conference put on by the Ohio Sea Grant this past Saturday. The bad news is the numbers are down this year. The good news is that the big ones ya get should be really nice ones. The better news is that last year's hatch was a record hatch and nearly off the chart so 2005 and 2006 look great!

I'd be willing to bet some Prime Rib on me catching the biggest walleye this year. To give you guys something to shoot for, I'll likely pull in a 30 incher or bigger!

[Toad]

heres a 30 incher from the eye catching boat of the toad and misfit. :D :cool:

Hey guys! Went to Dr. William Stiles in Pittsburg Pa. He hypnotized me 1 on 1 for $350. Best money I ever spent.He's expensive but he does the job. Been 6 mos. Don't crave one, don't miss them, don't want to ever smoke another one. Feel like I never smoked. Marlboro for 38 years. Haven't gained a pound he told me he also put that in my mind.Man is it nice to take a deep breath!:)
