This is my first report, so please bare with me...
I have been excited all week. You see , I was supposed to pickup my brand new 1625 Classic today. Unfortunately, I found out on Thursday that it isn't in yet. Being the good friend that he is, MikeThePike suggested that we go fishing from shore.....
So, off we went tis morning, at 8:00 am. We got to our spot and began fishing around 9:30. It was VERY windy, fishing from constantly moving docks at the far end of the marina. Within several minutes, we both had a couple of strikes and several follows. We new that we were in for a good time.
Sure enough, we started catching little rockets. They ranged in size from 16" - 24". Within 2 hours, we managed to net 8 between us. My pictures are below. I am sure that Mike will post a report.
This last pike was really hooked well, and flopped around in the net. He is bleeding, but swam away just fine.
We plan on returning next week when I pickup the boat. Maybe we will bring the kids (Andrew and Ryan)
