fishuhalik Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I took this idea from dtro on the bass fishing forum. I figured it'd be fun to see who's the "best all-around fisherman/woman" on FM. Here's all the different species categories on FM, let's see who's highest! And let's try to be honest. Bass - 24 1/4Catfish - 20Carp/sturgeon - 54Northern - 39Muskie - 40Panfish - 15 1/4Trout - 19Walleye/perch - 27 1/2Total - 239 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANYFISH2 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 No reason to be dishonest. I as well have pics for all except the catfish and trout. All are caught in Minnesota as well. I guess I put way to much time on the water and have gotten lucky a few times, but I still intend on improving on all except maybe the panfish(crappie) and the walleye, just to be realistic.

DTro Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Nice numbers Deitz, with some room in the Catfish and Sturgeon, you could be in the elite 300 club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Ive never been Flathead fishing, looks like a ton of fun.. The pike helps me a ton, and I actually rounded down. it was 49.5"..

markkstanley Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Note I have listed where I have caught my fish as not all are MNBass 23 Florida the famed OkechobeeCat 48 pool 4 Sturgeon 84 Sacramento Delta CA - had to beach the boatMusky 49 Tonka several times can't break 50 GRRRPike 43 Mille LacsTrout 27 Utah Rainbow Strawberry Lake thru the iceCrappie 15+ WaconiaWalleye 31 Tonka the one in avatar weighed more but was only taped at 30 320 Lots of hours for those fish. Planning to go lake trout fishing in Flaming Gorge UT next year to see if I can up that total with a big laker. Doubt I can improve much in the other catagories. I've given up on the 50+ musky after 30 years of trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTro Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I think you at least have to go with the Lake Sturgeon don't ya Mark aren't those Whities over there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleye Guy Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Some of the species list I have never caught or targeted.

fishuhalik Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 I'm thinking we should be doing mn and border waters only. It starts getting a little ridiculous when you factor in southern bass & cats, white sturgeon, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markkstanley Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 The Sacramento River sturgeon are whites but don't get to the size of the Columbia/Snake/Fraser river fish. I have fished in Idaho for whites but since I never lived there not listing them. The "southern" bass only gave me 1 inch but it was my biggest so I listed it. the catfish was flathead from the Mississippi Pool 4 not a southern fish. Just listing fish I caught from states I have actually lived in. I think great lakes salmon/steelhead should be countable in the trout catagory. If you want to catch big fish you need to go where they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainbutter Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Bass - 20''(canada)Catfish - 24''Carp - 15lbs on my scale, no length measurement.. I'd guess 36''?Pike - 37''(canada)Muskie - 48''(canada)Panfish - 11''trout - 29''(canada)Walleye - 29''(canada)total: 234 give or take some for the carp.Take out Canada and it's much less for me as I still haven't done tons of Minnesota fishing.
