How many days a year do you fish?? - 06/22/15 10:53 AM

Title says it all. I am talking about public reservoirs, not farm ponds...

I am probably on the lake somewhere around 150+ days a year.. Just wandering about these complaining post on how often they see it, or it happens

3 or 4 times a year. And that's only when I get asked as I don't have a boat. Have fished from the bank at Guntersville.

A bunch 3-4 days a week for most of the year. I usually fish friday Saturday and Sunday then try to squeeze in another day or two thru the week. Once it gets cool enough im usually hunting the corp land eith my squirrel dogs and fishing part of yhe day.I'll never have a fat savings account or a big house on the hill because of it but I'll be happy. I'm about to hook the boat up now and head out

I'd like to hear more about hunting and fishing the same day. Got to thinking about that myself the other day and wondered if it was worth the effort.

Re: How many days a year do you fish?? - 06/22/15 08:43 PM

I average about twice per week from February to September, then it lessens during hunting season. I may go 10 times total during deer season. So, what is that, 75-80? I too am boatless right now...sold boat, sold house, in transition. Been a little less frequent the past month.

Re: How many days a year do you fish?? - 06/22/15 08:49 PM

Not enough. When I do get on the water I am there for 8 hrs or more normally. sometimes Ill hit it after work a couple of hours but I cant seem to quit after a few hrs.

I'm pretty sure I hate fishing. But I go 3 times a week to make sure.

Re: How many days a year do you fish?? - 06/22/15 08:59 PM

Probably average about 3 times a week from Feb 1st- end of Sept. So maybe around 100-120 Fishing? During the winter it depends how much I duck hunt, So add maybe 10 more to that number.That seems like alot to me but It's gotta be fairly accurate. It helps that Lake G is half a mile from my driveway.

Ask my ole lady how often I'm on the water fishing and she'll tell you 575dozen times a year.

300-plus, but probably 99% of that in our five neighborhood lakes. Usually go every day at least an hour or two.

Re: How many days a year do you fish?? - 06/22/15 09:29 PM

Well, I've gone 12 times in the last month. If I can keep that pace up, that's 144 days/year.

It really overlaps early on the year. I'll go throw a top water the first hour in the morning then I'll go slip around and try to kill a hog. Did that one morning last year first weekend of October and killed 4 hogs with my .22. I just try to get the most out of my trips. Usually if I kill something it's time to head home. I got the deer or hog as quick as I can if it's warm then i cut there back legs like I'm going to hang them tie a rope thru there thrown them in the water and drag them out in the middle of the river to cool. I'll sink them atleast 10-15 feet

We have hunted till late morning came in eat dinner, then go back out and long line troll for crappie, be back around dark, and fillet crappie. Or vice versa, troll in am, and hunt PM... Get you some Hitek rod holder and you'll be set

I start crabbing right after deer season ends and pull my traps around the first of Oct. I mullet fish 2 or 3 days a week to keep my traps baited and have fish to eat.

Not nearly as much as I want. Hopefully when my boy gets a little older and can come along I will get after them a little harder.

Not enough. My boat is stored at a friends house up in Columbia, TN until I buy a house here. I've tried some local ponds around Huntsville and the Flint River. But I want to drift for cats or striped bass on the Tennessee River or some other large body of water.

I have been saying I was going to sell all my fishing stuff for the last 5 years, but I keep on going.
