frozen-fire Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Sorry for those who oppose blurred images. I don't want to upset anyone. We decided to hit the islands for some pike. Skipped opening weekend cause of the weather, but today wasn't so good either. Chilly, overcast, and on/off showers. First fish was my gf's. She had a solid hit and was really excited. It then came off a few seconds later. She reeled in her line to show me that her leader was all twisted up. I knew that the pike had overshot, and took the line instead of the lure. I told her to throw it back in the direction where she got the hit. She didn't really believe me that it would strike again, but what do you know. The pike comes up and inhales the lure! Nice healthy fish. The next fish was accidental. I thought I had a pike of a lifetime!!!!! Solid fight.... but it turned out to be a foul hooked carp. It was snagged on the dorsal fin. I brought it in to remove the lure, but decided to take a pic of it too. Pretty big one! I then finally get lucky when I switch up the xrap for a jointed rapala. Small little guy, but fun nonetheless. It completely cleared the water twice. I was surprised it had so much energy considering the water is still pretty cold. We bumped into other fishermen later into the day and they had some good success. They are also member on this forum too! They told us that there are police boats cruising the islands looking for fishermen and asking for licenses. Don't forget your licenses people. They are charging those fishing without them.

dsn Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Nice fish. I guess you were there the same day as me. But I was fishing the other end of the island. Yep I know where you were fishing. I see you found the carp that I was looking for. Only a carp can give you a fight of a life time. All the carpers know that, that's why they are carper's in the first place. Now I know where to find the carp now. Thanks for info. dsn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OH man, we "LOVE Blurred pic bro." The only thing we can't reconize is water yet. However I do know the color of the water in some areas. Example Black bottom, Green , and brown. DSN I guess I should get out there with MJL with our heavy gear (buzzers and ground bait) Edited May 7, 2008 by dsn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillM Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 The blurred background pics are killing me! This is Toronto Island, there is a very good chance that your 'secert' spot has been fished a million times by other people then yourself...

Reef Runner Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Nice fish. I went piking yesterday evening afterwork and got skunked. I've noticed that most of these pike are caught during "happy hour," ie. 11am. Is that the case with your GF's pike? I am just wondering if I'm wasting my time fishing late evenings because after 3-4 outings the skunk will never leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
