Anyone like to fish?

[Jason]

I use a dry dropper rig for fly fishing. I've had some good success with it. They seem to usually take the nymph though.

the last time i went fishing, a buddy and his wife took me and my wife out on his 19 footer. just for fun we threw a line over the side (all four of us were vegetarians) and planned to release whatever we caught. i caught a ray. we pulled it in to the boat and cut the line, but we couldn't get the hook out because he was squirming around so much. we finally dumped him back in the water with the hook sticking halfway out of his lower mouth. always felt bad about that, and hope he didn't suffer too much.

protip: don't fish at Irvine Lake unless you enjoy catching nothing.

Well I haven't been there for a few years so I can't confirm.

Nope.  That was up near Carson.

Every time I invited to go fishing, I already have a standing appointment to watch grass grow.

and if you don't, you make one

[Tank]

Yeah, I don’t get the appeal of sitting around hours hoping to catch one.

You obviously don't know how to fish...

I wouldn't fish either if all I did was soak bait and wait for a stupid trout bite a ball of cheese.

I'm a bass fisherman and it's a great sport.  Unless you've experienced the *tap-tap* - *wham* - set the hook feeling, you wouldn't understand.  The tug is the drug.

OR... the topwater bite (like in the video above)

Take him to Laguna Lake in Fullerton. Much more picturesque.
