Comments
Today the plan was to get back up to pool four and find the pike that Terry and I had gotten into last week. My partners were Jake and his son Mark. Mark was excited to get into some pike and I hoped I would not let him down. We did quite a bit of searching and caught a fish here and there, but the numbers were not fantastic. There did seem to be fish just about everywhere though.
The size structure started out rather small and I was beginning to wonder if this area had any quality size pike. We did end up catching some nice fish with Jake catching the beauty of the day ( 38"). I have to take my hat off to Mark (poor kid). The kid is only ten and he fished hard all day and never hooked and caught a fish completely on his own, while Jake and I combined for over twenty between the two of us.
My strawberries have started to bloom; this spring sure seems advanced.
