Should I Fish An Urban Hobo Creek?

Had an hr yesterday to fish with my son and the weather is juicy right now.

There is one monster in that creek that has owned me twice in a row. I'm thinking about getting my Captain Ahab on.

Hell no. There's tires washing machines sometimes animal carcasses. But every now and then huge fish. Just depends when the water is up they move so you never know what you'll fine

just watched the vids. lmao @ your sons reaction, just stoic AF

What lb test are you using?

It's probably a combination of these 3 things:

- too light of line
- drag not set properly
- knot tie failure

What line test are you using? Second video looks like it's the line that came with the pole? If so, you gotta fix that.

Why fish if you can't even eat it? Why not go to cleaner waters and fish and then cook the fish and enjoy it?

Have you ever even been fishing? Why do you think people go musky, northern, and many others if 95% of the people don’t eat them

It’s not the test or the rod. It’s user error

Edit: good luck brah. Expecting a new thread with pics of this beast. Set the hook! don’t just reel in

Edit 2: you also need to google how to hold a fish when caught
