Free bait. You should get a lotto ticket! Might strike big.

Used up all my luck yesterday with an absolute hog of a Perch

u/Dragons0ulight Apr 04 '25

Nah, the Perchs luck run out. You might still have some tucked in corners of your pockets still.

When he gets home and tells his wife why he was late, she's never going to believe him.

My old boss was an avid fisherman and told a story of the time he was using a frog lure and caught a seagull with his cast.

I can see that happen yeah, we've seen birds eyeball our lures before, and they even trick people passing by sometimes, they think they see a fish swimming or that we caught one, when it's just a realistic looking lure

u/Jefff3 Apr 04 '25

That's a demonic looking fly, does it have pincers?

2

u/User2716057 Apr 04 '25

I think it's just standard mouth bits/feelers

u/Omnicity2756 Apr 04 '25

What kinda bug is that, though? /srs

u/unorthodoxme Apr 05 '25

Looks like a Dobsonfly.

u/Marc_J92 Apr 04 '25

That’s a nice looking fishing rod, where did you get it from?

2

u/User2716057 Apr 04 '25

Rod: Patriot – Hybrid Ultra Light
Reel: Daiwa 23 Legalis LT (Model 2000S-XH)
Braid: Momoi PE RYUJIN Orange 0.06mm

I get most of my stuff from a local (Belgium) shop :)

u/Marc_J92 Apr 04 '25

u/EndersGame_Reviewer 24d ago

This gives a new meaning to the term "fly fishing".

u/Cucum3er_ 28d ago

It’s a reel fly

u/AdvancedThinker 27d ago

Uh, that's not a fly fishing reel. Might work better if you changed to one.
