Before you drive, do you know everything about the car your driving? Probably not. You sit down shut up and obey the rules of the road. Doesn't matter what you drive, as long as its legal and you obey the rules. Same thing for fishing in my opinion. Doesn't matter what you catch as long as your playing by the rules!

If you have never caught a fish that gave you trouble identifying you have either not fished nearly enough ..... Or your a liar.... Common sense ??? Common sense????? Sorry but when u mix in interbreeding and the dozens of fish species most people don't even know about common sense is to do exactly what u c here....if anyone try's to tell u they studied over 30 fish species before they hit Alberta waters ..... If this tool ever gets his nose outta the air maybe he could come to the water with me for a day and when he catches from where I take him if he can't correctly identify what I put him on we put him up for roast ..... Like get a life .... I'd straight up guarantee this finger pointer of ethical fishing cannot identify every fish... Good job on the catch man don't let one idiot change your mind you did everything as u shoulda... I can't stand you self appointed fish cops with no education but lots to say!!!..... And is this backtracking or what....."the watershed might b contaminated"???? Like I said uneducated finger pointers I hate you

wtf are you talking about brett?? yes i do know alot about the car i drive, who doesnt know lots about the car they own?? Also i bet i could identify my car.......how can you guys argue that people not researching or learning about fishing is a good idea??
Yes I know about my car.....the engine size and so on
I golf, so yes i researched about golf related information
I eat food, I learn about the foods i eat and how good/bad they are for you
I like computers, when i built my computer I researched what hardware I would need to suit my needs.
If you enjoy something why would you not learn more about it??
I forgot that the people who fish the creek and hermitage daily are fuking know it all's, never need to research anything

originally posted by fishingafterwork
Hey all u walleye experts out there I got a few questions
1. Do big walleye school less the bigger they get
2. Any idea of their migrating patterns( up and downstream)
3. I'm having a tough time trying to distinguish walleye from sauger
4. Are you more likely ( in a river) to get big fish downstream or upstream in big pools? Basically I'm asking do they stay near 1 spot their whole life or up and down the whole watershed
5. In a lake if you are marking tons of walleye on a shelf but they won't bite.( u figured it was a light bite day ) and y mark fish in much deeper water...... Knowing its a light bite do u A: use the same small jig that normally works on the shelf and in turn sacrifice good contact with the jig
Or B: use a big jig for good contact that normally doesn't work on the shelf and sacrifice maybe being too big a meal?
Thanks guys!
Also I think this is your post......fishingafterwork
3. I'm having a tough time trying to distinguish walleye from sauger
so you have problems with that too?? looks like you can not identify many fish either
"Sorry but when u mix in interbreeding and the dozens of fish species most people don't even know about common sense is to do exactly what u c here"
yes i bet there is tons of interbreeding, walleye and goldeye, walleye and pike, suckers and sturgeon, sauger and RMW all of these are very common and produce many different fish that are hard to identify

Yes I am gonna try to hit the water tnite and tO nsr monger I think u are missing my point I don't know every fish I've ever caught I was taking your side ??? The nsr has more varieties of fish than most waters in Alberta and yes I do try to educate myself the best I can and yes i do have tough time distinguishing a walleye and sauger and saugeye (nothing wrong with that) but there is something wrong with these know it alls!... Don't fish till u know all fish..?? Rediculous .... I dunno how a simple question about fish I'd got a response of " don't fish till u know what u are catching" that plain rediculous....

good, quality thread. Should make it a sticky so people can reference it easily.

I can't remember if it had that fin. I caught on a pickeral rig with worms. The mouth was pointing up/middle. It was not a sucker for sure. I think it was a rainbow/cutthroat trout but I was always told they don't live downstream of Drayton Valley in the NSR system. So I was very suprised when I brought it out of the water to look at it.
How many people here have caught trout in the NSR after Drayton Valley?
I caught these guys east of Burtonsville Island.

I would bet money that what you caught was either a rocky or a trout species. drayton is not very far out of the foothills.

ok man, I didnt mean you need to know every fish, that can be tough even with online pics due to species coloring being different depending on what body of water they are caught in, but doing some research is always a good idea! it wasnt even meant to be an attack at the OP.......just stating it should be common sense to research something you enjoy! its a touchy subject, you dont need to know every fish, but probly have a good idea, like grouping walleye,sauger, saugeye together, even if you are not sure which one it is, you have a good idea.......same thing with the 5-6 different suckers in the river, mayb you cant say its a quillback sucker, but atleast you know its a sucker and so on ........also lets say for example this dude pulled a sturgeon out, he wouldnt even know the rarity of it and would probably be more excited knowing that he just caught a very rare fish! Its ridiculous to say dont fish if you dont know everything, but there is a massive wealth of information online, I just started fishing again late last fall and I have learned sooooo much about fishing in like 9 months, I would greatly encourage people to research where they are fishing, but in the end if they are not breaking laws, they are the only ones missing out

Bottom line not everything needs to be or is researched! There are various "degrees" of fishermen. Believe it or not some just go out to fish.
Ya know if ya would a left out the common sense requirement. you might not of ruffled as many feathers! Name callin not needed though.
