Type of fishing you do the most

Post by Brookie » Tue Apr 22, 2003 12:27 am

Hi! Since this is a new forum and I am new here, I would like to know what type of fishing people do the most. So I have created this poll to get a good percentage on what people on the forum fish for.

I, as you can tell by my username, like to fish for trout in remote
streams, rivers, and lakes.

Darn, the limit is 10 on polls! :x

Welcome Brookie and great idea!

I have made the Poll a sticky topic which will be placed at the top of this forum.

Thanks!

I have to agree with Gyro, the fishing i love best simply comes down to what I can fish at that time of the year. My preferences switch just as fast as the seasons do.

Though i do prefer offshore fishing.

I think that fly fishing for trout is simply the purest most exhiliarating way to get back to nature.

Depending on seasons... I do alot of trout fishing, once in a while catfishing, and alot of 1/2 to 2 day trips in the ocean anything from rockfish to albies.

Oh, I am sure you guys have big ones there because the weather is much warmed throughout the year. What's the biggest you have caught?

Right now the poll can only have 10 options total.
For some polls you wouldn't want it to be too long,
but for this one, it would be great if there was a longer
list. :D

I will make a request to change it to... 15? Would that
be a good number? Then I will add in Tuna if that's
ok with Brookie.
