    In Search of Burbot Master

    Dear forum members,

     I couldn't help but take notice of the individual in the freshwater fishing photo section holding the ling.  If any of the forum members could help me find this individual I would be greatly indebted to you.  I am part of an emerging underground organization of Red River fishermen in search of the ever elusive Red River Ling.  There have very few, if any documented cases of burbot catches on the Red.  I have invested great time and money into my passion of ling fishing and will do absolutely anything to learn his secrets.  He must be quite a gifted fisherman to be able to make such a catch.  The mastery of his baiting technique can certainly not be in question! 

    kneel suckers

     In speaking to Doug at the ND game and fish, it seems that both North Dakota and Minnesota are committed to making the Red a successful Burbot fishery and have offered this individual upwards of $80K/season to catch and tag these fish as netting has had no positive results. Apparently, this person in the only one gifted enough to actually catch the wiley ling.  I am willing to make a much more lucrative offer to said individual to be chief advisor to the Red River Burbot Fishing Association (RRBFA).

     Thank you for your time

    Whoever you are you make me laugh. After seeing Dave heart broken on a fish that only took drag and got hung up on a snag he resorted to only catching ling (not on purpose). He definately has no "secrets" or much skill at all as a fisherman, the part describing him as gifted is more like it.

    Anyways welcome to the forum and you'll have to share with me who you are as I'm sure I know who you are.

    UPDATE!!!

    Burbotmaster has been spotted practicing his ninja like technique on the Gator Garr in Lake Amistad near Del Rio, TX.  Burbotmaster's lust for exotic fishies has moved south.

     

    p.s. Gator Garr are scarry

    If you have the intestinal fortitude to reel in huge exotic fish like that ling a gator garr should be nothing for you.  You have been fully trained in the art of Burbot --- oh yeah, catfish hunter called and wants your rod and reel next time, just just your line,  bait and dignity.
