Comments:

It was a loner fishing trip that was meant to expand on my fishing outing with Oaty the other day. I had some pretty great pike action on that outing and I was hoping I could have the same results today. I did find some very active pike and was lucky enough to tie into the one big one.
I covered a lot of water in three hours and when I put the pole down for the night I was satisfied with the results.

Observations:

The water is still on the rise and will be above flood stage in a couple of days. My dock is about six inches above the water at this time. I noticed some lilacs in La Crosse that are very close to blooming. The orioles are very abundant and active at the feeder.
