Hey Y'all.

 

Headed out to the Islands yesterday.

 

There was the possibility of other OFNers there too (BabyHerc and DSN)

 

Twas not to be.

 

I was the only fisherman on the islands. Matter of fact, the place was devoid of life. Love it.

 

I was hoping that the day would be as nice as Sunday but it turned out to be windy and cold.

 

I had some great bites and lost a few.

 

Here are some pics.....

 

 

They don't like it when you troll from the ferry.

Thought this Rocky racoon was dead but he was homeless struggling/squirming to hide his head from the sun. I think he was kicked out of the bed at night and was in the doghouse.

I have an extreemely tasteless caption for this but I promised Muskystudd that I would be good.

(Insert your own caption here: )

Lost this one. Not hooked to well. Too bad it was a decent size.

Had some great follows at this spot, then lost a nice one and then finally was rewarded with this lil'snotty.

This one was totally unexpected. I cast into 5 FOW just for fun and this dude hits. Very aggressive fight.

Cant fish for walleye in Div 8 (Lake O) from First day of Mar until first Saturday in May.......I believe Pike is closed for April only...opening again the first Saturday in May.

That's right Cliff.

 

However, I don't fish catch and release if the weather will be below freezing.

Not because I can't handle it, simply because the fish can't.

Their eyes and gills freeze up in seconds. They will die.

 

So it'll be catch and clean soon on the ice (I hope)

Good!

 

My camera is still a 2.1 mp!!!!

See ya out there!!

 

Love the report. Some pretty good posing too!

 

Thanks,

 

I was cold and almost fell in the water on that last shot!

 

Always fun to see a report from you, snag...

 

A bit of a surprise to me to hear that there are still active pike around the Islands.

 

Mike

 

Thanks Mike,

 

I was suprised too.

Even if I was skunked, it was nice to be there.

WTG Snag! :thumbsup_anim:

 

Good to see that those pike are still there. That last one is a good size. Have caught a few myself from that area this year but never that big - always little rockets. A nice reward for the long walk to and from the ferry!

 

Did the racoon make it into the hole? :rolleyes:

 

Maybe I'll get out there this weekend for one last cast for this year. :Gonefishing:

 

Thanks for sharing.

I have to say, that if there was an award for most entertaining fishing reports of the year that that honour would go to you....hands down!!! Hey...why isn't there an award for that???? haha.
