What a Wonderful Day for Fishing

Guess what! I got eight bass today.
I went to Hawthorn Park at around three this afternoon. I chose the left side as my first spot for today's fishing. It was raining at that time actually, but I did not care at all. Maybe it was because of the bad weather, I was the only one there in the beginning. Just right after my first throw, I got the first bass. Hahahahaha…Wooooooooooo…So cool!
By following the rules from reading the bass tips, I immediately changed into another spot and kept trying. And it was really a miracle: I got my second bass. I could not believe that I caught two bass within thirty minutes. I felt like winning a lottery or something.
Then I changed the lure since the previous one has already worn out. And I guess it was the bigger lure that enabled me to catch bigger bass: the third, fourth, and fifth ones.
The third bass: Isn't it big?!
What?! You want to buy this fish?! Five Hundred bucks...cause this is my fifth bass.
~What's going on here? The bass in the lake has not been fed for a week or what?!~ At around five thirty, if I remember correctly, Sharon, Alyssa, and Mayla came to join me. Wuhoooooooo…I really needed a break…cause I have been catching lots of fish!!! Hahahahahahaha…
To test whether the little shiny bead works, I used Alyssa's rod. The result shown that just remaining the original setting would be good enough. Bass seemed not to enjoy the little fluorescent bead. So I changed the lure and the hook. It was getting dark so I thought it might be a good idea to use jig heads. Hey..hey..hey..hey…It worked. I got my sixth, seventh, and eighth bass by the jig head and the long curly-tail worm.
Look at my happy face…I was a happy fisherman.

湖釣大嘴鱸魚-初學路亞的心得

親愛なる君へ :

嘿嘿!最近迷上路亞湖釣,而且我專釣大嘴鱸魚!看看這大個兒,蠻重的勒,牙齒也很尖,我把它抓起來的時候常會被刺傷!

說到路亞湖釣,其實是一種休閒運動,釣者需要極大的耐性和技巧!初學者往往數小時拉不到一隻魚,若不是擬餌出問題,就是持竿的技巧不對!有人說沒有於不會去咬的擬餌,只有不會用的人!我剛開始去釣的幾次,站在湖邊幾個小時就是拉不到一條魚!現在稍好,有時一兩條釣到手,那種感覺真是興奮!

當大嘴鱸魚去咬餌的時候,它是好像吸水似地把餌吸進嘴裡,這時竿子就會抽動兩下,我再一揚竿,收線,就會看到魚身在水面上翻滾,信心及征服感那真是難以言語!

有幾次揚竿時機抓不好,被魚逃了,雖然懊悔,但也學到一課:耐心!有些玩家說,釣不到魚時也是一種樂趣!因為這就好似一場人與魚的競爭,鬥智、鬥耐心、鬥心理、也鬥體力!
這尾昨天釣到時,真是歡喜:是我目前釣到最大的一尾!唉!好在這種土味重、腥味重,不好吃!要不然,我肯定帶回家煮了祭五臟廟!...哈哈哈哈!
