Question #2:

Should I Move my fish to another aquarium?

My comet goldfish I got from petsmart doesn't seem happy in his new tank. It's bottomsitting and not eating much. Should I move him to my fish tank which is bigger, brighter, and has fish in it. (The other fishtank has a little bass, 4 baby bluegill, and 2 small catfish. The goldfish is about 5-6" long. Would he be fine down in that fishtank. I'm worried he'll die in the current one.
JSYK: The tank he's currently in is 20 gallons.

Question #3:

I need help choosing some bass lures for strippit fishing?

Hi, I'm new to bass fishing, and am not sure what to get as far as lures go. The strip pit we own is huge. It has been around since the 1930's, so the fish in it are quite big. It is at most 60 feet deep, and the water clarity is stained. There is also lots of weeds and debris in the water. I usually enjoy fishing with a 1/4 oz jig head with a 4 inch grub, but this doesn't always work. So I need some more variety. What should I get? I'm not sure about size, color, type, etc. Ithink bright colors work best in stained/murky water? I like soft plastics best. I'm also stuck on what rod/reel combo I should get. I'm thinking a Zebco 33. Any suggestions? Please help...
Largemouth bass.

Question #4:

Question #5:

catfishh baits??????

hi so i go to a small pond by my house for fishing and i used abait thats made out of bread and cheese all smooshed together with lots o garlic salt and real granulated garlic that imade at home so i use it the first time and i get a huge catfish that breaks my line [ i caught it with in the first ten mins of casting] so i cast another piece out and i got another catfish with in first ten mins so i real it in and its a 31 in, 17 pound catfish and i give a piece of the magic bait to aome one else and he gets one in the first ten mins that breaks his line [hes using 10 pound test fireline and im using 8 pound test mono ] then the next day i go to the lake at the same time with 2 lines out in the water and same bait and i catch nothing so then my mom bought some large cut garlic for a recipe and she has some garlic juices left over that almost makes me gag just sniffing them becuz its so strong so do u think if i soaked the same bait in that stuff it would work relly good??

ps. i switch to 14 pound fireline and also whadt do u think of the south bend colapseble eclipse rod it landed me a 31 in catfish and a 22 in largemouth bass and many more so it cant be total crap?

Question #6:

How can I supersize my goldfish?

I have a little feeder goldfish i got from petsmart. I want to grow him until he is as big as my fist. Any ideas how? I know that fish grow as big as their containers so im going to put him in my pond when it gets big enough that my bass wont eat it.

Question #7:

What is the best time to catch river fish in late August/early September in southern Michigan near Lake MI?

I've been fishing during the day and having rotten luck. I was told it's because the waters are just too warm. Most of August has been in the 90's. Even when it is hot though, the fish need to eat! So what is the best time to throw my line out there? Do they eat really late at night? The rivers I fish in mostly have Bass, Bluegills and other panfish, catfish, lots of large carp, some trout, and soon we will have lots of Salmon coming through. I live in southwestern Michigan. What months are the best fishing for these rivers that lead into Lake Michigan?
Thanks!

Question #8:

What would be a good rod and reel for me to catch mainly river salmon in the midwest?

I live on Lake Michigan and there a few good rivers that lead into it that I enjoy fishing in. I mainly catch pan fish like Bluegill and the occasional Bass.

I need a better pole (mine is a cheaper) and reel though for the upcoming salmon season! How much I should I expect to pay? I'm 5'8 but I hate LONG poles and would rather use a shorter one. However, I was told that you need to use long poles like 12 footers for catching salmon, this isn't true, is it? I'm looking to pay no more than $75 really.

Also, what is the best bait (eggs right) or lures to catch salmon?

What should I look for when buying a pole such as weight limit and stuff?

And what is the STRONGEST line???

THANKS AND SORRY FOR ALL THE QUESTIONS!!!

Question #9:

Best way to catch bass in a pond?

There is this pond that I fished at many times and only got bites by tiny sunfish. I never seen someone catch anything other than sunfish and I know there are bass because i've seen people stock the pond with them. I've tried almost every lure I have and worms and never got one bite.

Question #11:

What is the best New York charter fishing boat?

Like those boats you pay to go on for half day fishing full day fishing.

My family and I went on the capt mike and the north star 2 in howard beach and we caught NOTHING.

I want to go on one where it has a high catch rate. We want to catch some bluefish or striped bass and keepers.

THanks.

Question #12:

Which is the rarer fish of the two bass?

20 pound largemouth or 10 pound smallmouth?

Question #13:

What rod should I buy?

I usually fish for bass (smallmouth, never caught a largemouth) and I use crank baits, plastic worms, spinner baits, and occasionally stink baits when I'm fishing for catfish.

What type of rod should I buy? And would it matter what type of reel I buy too? I am planning on buying a baitcasting reel.

Question #14:

How do you kill a fish?

I am asking this because I had caught a bluegill fishing and he swallowed my hook. Well... what I mean is that there was only a small piece of my lure in view in the fish's mouth (and it was a very small hook.) After about 5 minutes I got the hook out but I think I tore one of his organs. After that, I was pretty sure he was suffering so I just wanted to put him out of his misery and just kill him swiftly with my fillet knife. but didn't know how.

And BTW: The poor bluegill is now in heaven after being eaten by some dark figure in the water after he made a break for it. (I believe it was a bass.)

Question #15:

Question #16:

Smelly bait where can I find it?

I went fishing one time and my girlfriend found this really smelly bait in the water. So I tried it out and it caught me a Largemouth Bass. I know there are products you can buy to make it smell bad.

~I was just wondering if you have to buy it like that or if you can make it smell like that using products that you have at home. Suggestions?
