good to see u are catching something but that was a dink fest.
LoL - when u right u right.. :)
But the truth is even worse! I went crappie fishing three times with the boat and livescope and blanked all 3 times! This dinkfest is actually my victory! :)
Funny ending was a nice touch. You inspired me to try heading to a water retention reservoir 3 blocks from my house. I caught about 30 to 40 crappie dinks during a single outing there about 20 years ago. During the lock down it would be nice to fish a little just to get out of the house. Fished last Sunday at Silver Springs for the Illinois stocked trout and got nothing for 6 1/2 hours of trying. Went home skunked. Worst part of all was I heard several fisherman say, what the heck their buddies had slayed them Friday and Saturday was fair too and Sunday was dead. I only saw 2 trout landed and saw one guy with 2 on a stringer. It sucked. It was a beautiful day though.
i am done with trout fishing ; ) - it always sux for me. I love crappie
@@ifishcatfish Trout are a bitch. Very persnickety fish to go after. I have way better luck on Devils Kitchen is southern Illinois for trout. It's the only lake in Illinois you can fish for trout all year round.
Catching is catching......I'd have stayed there all day. Hope your weather...and mine...gets better soon.
I’d live to get a slab from this little pond but i honestly cant get enough of it as long as i get a bite. I know uve had these days when u catch 200 fish and u gota go home but u still make one more cast : )
@@ifishcatfish oh yes...hard to leave biting fish.
Appreciate your sarcasm
you gota find a way to spin this around .. : )
Hello Victor. Just wanted to say hello. My name is Alexis Santana and I fish almost every lake you fished. Saw you today at one of my favorite Lakes. Shabby.
Tough for me in the wind. Only 5 crappie. U guys doin better?
Excellent vid!
Forgive me if you’ve addressed this before in previous videos, but what is your opinion on 1 piece vs 2 piece rods? Advantages/Disadvantages?
Btw...purchased a Daiwa Exceler LT 2500 (I have a preference for a screw in handle) after watching your reviews. Was a bit hesitant to go 2500 over a 1000. Anyway, you were right. This real is so light. I don’t think there’s any need to go smaller. Keep up the great content!
on high-end rods the connections are so good that it makes no difference. On cheaper rods or even expensive non-japanese rods it is not so good. Sometimes I just glue the two pieces on day one and never touch them again and use it as one piece. If u keep folding it, cheap connections will deteriorate. Japanese rods usually have high quality connections even in the low end rods though. This daiwa Presso rod has EXCELLENT connection. It has the same connection as in my $300 daiwa carp rods.
So the answer to your question will vary rod by rod. On daiwa presso i guarantee the two pieces work as one piece and durability is amazing. On the other hand i will NEVER EVER buy a two piece Ugly Stik - those are just glass going on top of glass and paint, where paint falls off quickly and you are left with bad connection. Even glass wears off. Expensive connections have special surface on the connection that is very hard and non sticky - like teflon.
Well good to see you sir, nice catching session. To bad you had to cut it short but a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do. Thanks again for sharing nice to see you. Stay safe my friend
im safe, my friend, this covid stupidity can't touch me. I'm afraid of what the government is doing, not the virus itself.
@@ifishcatfish I know kinda smells fishy. I dont believe anything any of them say
A dozen Specks is a reel good day....I was expecting the Carp Freight Train to come rolling through town again!!
LOVES - i was thinking about bringing a carp rod with me and tossing it while im there but I think we can agree i've shown enough carp in the last month : ) People unsubscribe in droves on my carp videos..
i_fish is that a slip float ? I am new to fishing and have watches many of your videos . Very informative. Keep up great job
no. I never ever use slip floats. It is a 1 gram fixed float. If u go down to the description and open my amazon page you will see the floats.
@@ifishcatfish ...A Bigg Fish is a line stretcher..... who cares what species is involved....People have no imagination and I'm still subscribed...Go catch a Honker Carp Victor!!
No trophies there, lol, but you definitely got on fish! Hek, even when I get skunked, it's still a fun time.
yup : )
Nice!! How do you estimate the leader length?
u mean how deep I fish? I didn't have leader on the rod that got all the fish. I am not very scientific about it. If the water is a little stained, i will catch the same number of fish on straight braid. But now its still cold and pretty clear, so i will put like 2 feet of clear leader up front..
Very successful day of fishing there... BTW, is that a bobber or a weight on the line ? Thanks
this is a 1 gram bobber. The only thing i use. U can find them in my amazon page in the link below. Open the crappie lures page.
Thanks I ordered the 1.5g. Maybe it will work well for stream trout fishing too
only thing i use. u need to try to use the 1g though : ). Less noise = more fish.
i_fish let’s see how these work. I could take up to July to get them
What is this float you are using on the Presso rod Victor ?
something i bought on amazon 5 years ago... Long gone. But i will find new ones and share link
@@ifishcatfish Thanks!
Welcome to the bank fisherman club
both are nice. It's so easy to spontaneously decide to go fishing and hop int he car and be there , fish 1 hour, and go back home. Towing boats and dealing with marina ramps takes so much time and there is often a line here in Chicago..
i_fish freshwater boating is easier. I fished with my coworker. In the raritan bay for blue fish and stripers. His boat was on shore, go to gas station, fill up gas, move my gear out to his boat, his gear, guide him into the water, stay with boat, fish, wait with boat, get car, winch in, drain boat, hose down boat, hose down all fishing gear with freshwater, wait in line to run freshwater through motor, park boat. Omg.. it was way too much. I now fish jetties and beaches for flukes, for saltwater it took way too much time.
