I know I said in a New Year's resolution that I wasn't just going to just post fish pictures and instead get better action shots - this is going to be an exception.
Blake got his biggest SMB career to date - a 17 inch beut. SMBs were almost all on topwater - finally.
And while he and Scott were casting topwater I followed up with a wounded minnow pattern and this fella came out of nowhere - my biggest pike ever.
A nice part about fishing in rural NW Wisconsin is that on your drive back you can fire off a few rounds. Blake and I are working on Yeti promotion shots - and this was the first firing of my new AR-15. Only $1.10 a round!
We head to Door County for a week vacation. It's mainly going to be gear fishing but we have a musky day Tuesday and I'm bringing the fishing boat for SMB and walleye action. No flats carp plans.
Nice work! How long was the pike? Plan to be in the TC area a week from tomorrow to fish with a friend. Maybe we'll hit the Croix too.
ReplyDelete36 inches. Good luck next week - there has been a lot of rain so hopefully you can find a place to fish. The guides have been having a difficult time this year finding good water. There are lots of tiger muskies in the Twin Cities lakes - what a great fall back option.
