Okay, I am new here. So, please go easy on me. I have been fishing for 40 years and never really knew what I was doing. I had to little brothers to keep busy so, if we were ever near some form of water I would get a stick, some line and a hook and worm, then voila! We were fishing. Caught alot too!

Nowadays I go with hubby. 5 poles, a five drawer tackle box, 2-4-6-10-20 pound test, leader, treble hooks, regular hooks, swivels, weights, floats, every color power bait & lures, lures, lures. I even bought a thing called a bleeding hook - for Gods sake!

Results? Nada, Zilch, Skunked, Zero. The only time I catch anything is off the over populated, POLLUTED, Redondo Pier! and that is only Mackrel with a sabiki rig. We went to Irvine Lake on St. Pattys day. Nothing. We went to Santa Ana River Lakes for the "Monster Sturgeon". Nothing, except a stupid Carp (which I don't count). We went to Castaic Lake and then the Lagoon. All I got was a sunburn and an earache from the wind.

What is wrong? Are we trying to hard? Is it the wrong lunar time?

I think I am going to get a stick, and some old line, and a hook, and a worm. Back to basics...

Maybe this forum might help. See y'all around.

Dude, I just reread what I wrote and I sound like a big crybaby! I did get alot of awesome pics at least.

LadeeFish- It is about the fun, the challenge and the people around you- I have Team 57 shirts and even an exclusive one of a kind Team 57 good luck charm, still have yet to catch a fish.

But you are in the right place to start the tide turning- welcome to the board and "Team 57"

Welcome LaddeeFish, look forward to meeting you soon at one of the events.

Fishergirl57, I think you have to have a line in the water to catch a fish. :wink:

Damn, I knew there was something I was missing- I bought the pink fishing pole, the instructions did say something about inserting in water- :explode:

Drats! I get locked out of the house because of my wife's bunko party, and now I'm locked out of a potential rendezvous. It must be a conspiracy. Oooorrrrr can it be my breath, b.o. or feet? Does anyone know if Dr. Scholl's is safe for underarm use?

Welcome, LadeeFish and Carrie!
