Pike aren't fussy, they'll hit anything that moves, even baits as big as themselves LOL

Not lake Erie but landed this one on an ultralight using a tiny jig while crappie fishing a couple weeks ago! Fun!

Went out for a few hours and conditions were ideal for seeing pike chase and hit.. I went 9 for 11 in a little over 3 hours.. biggest was 31". All caught on a beat up Doctor spoon..

totally get where you're coming from. we should be a bit looser in several sectors but I'd prefer to be safer than not. and I totally get the small biz thing, my wife has seen her work drop like a rock last year. it's only slowly beginning to pick up and she felt better when I had my first AZ cuz at least I had *some* protection and she wasn't as worried about bringing something home. The second shot can't come soon enough and I think the schedule sold be moved up now that doses are coming in fast and furious. Maybe there might be a fall Lakair visit if things go well. stay safe and be well, wb

I would suggest writing to your MPP and MP expressing your frustration. perhaps cc: local radio, tv, or newspaper. Won't get into how I think this pandemic has been dealt with, but if we had done a true hard lockdown earlier, we wouldn't been this situation. I blame this partly on the lack of spine Ontarians have tbh. My in laws in Australia etc did this and they're filling 90k sports stadium. tl;dr - we partly have ourselves (not literally you or I) to blame for prolonging this. We're getting there day by day and I expect by Canada Day long w/e will be much better and patios will be open !

back to smitty55............I have a couple GREAT rib recipes, that turn out delicious. I am just thinking that a bacon cure would give them a completely different taste. Pork tenderloins don't taste anything like tenderloin bacon, just like pork loin doesn't taste like back bacon. This would be an experiment, and I am curious to see if anybody else has tried it.

Not bad. I usually use a black spinner bait with a pink tail, but going to try a spoon tomorrow. Thanks for the report.

Dr spoons are deadly for pike, nice job.

If you're talking about the Nith River that flows into the Grand, then you shouldn't be targeting bass at all. The season is closed for another month.
