2023 Fishing Thread

My wife and kids have two cats. I distinctly remember saying “those things aren’t staying here.” I suppose the cats, and my family, didn’t really care what I say.
Hope they are both fixed females. Dont need a ball bearin mouse trap makin things worse.
 
Headed to Canada tomorrow for bear hunt but they have smallies and land locked salmon. Any lure recommendations? I've caught smallies on curly tail grubs before but the only salmon I've caught were snagged in Alaska so not sure what they naturally want to eat.
 
River smallies? At least around here they eat everything I'm trying to toss for walleyes. :grinning: Monday night when I went out on the Allegheny they ate a bomber long A, authentx moxi on a 1/8 ned jig, a #5 cp spin, and a #3 mepps aglia fire tiger

Can't usually go wrong with letting a ned rig type bait work itself downstream on the edge of the current.

I've never fished for salmon though.

In the Susky here I do best with a natural color tube (Olive green, brown, burgundy), grub, or worm ned-rigged and inched along like a crawfish or swung down and across. Sometimes a good jerkbait or spinnerbait will work as well.
 
These are a couple of the larger ones I caught this morning out of Leesville Lake in Virginia.
