Stoty Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 My two buddies and I got out for some Pike/Walleye action near the Bay of Quinte yesterday, and the Pike co-operated, but the walleye and weather didnt! We were stuck fishing in one bay all morning because of the HIGH winds and 4 foot waves in the main lake!! It was insanely rough out there! There were no monsters caught, but some decent fish. My first Pike of the season.. My buddy Jay's first pike of the season.. A cool shot of Jay's Pike... All in all, a good morning. Heck any morning spend fishing is a good morning!
Spiel Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 ....You persevered under adverse conditions and it payed off, good on you.
muskymike Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Nice Job Stoty, I wish I would have been able to get out this weekend.
BillM Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Fish were tight lipped yesterday, water temp dropped 4 degree's from Saturday.. Had a follow from a big pike on the Severn River, but we couldn't rise her after that.
Stoty Posted May 20, 2008 Author Report Posted May 20, 2008 Ya, the weather was nasty to say the least! Weird though, because the fish we caught were super aggressive. They were chasing BIG crankbaits that were being reeled in FAST. The one I caught was on a followup. My buddy missed the fish on a spinnerbait, and I threw a jig/grub right behind it, and he slammed it. Lots of OOS bass too, and some BIG ones. I lost a largemouth at the boat that must have been 5-6lbs, it was massive. But for the conditions, the fish were abnormally aggressive, which I was surprised about.
Rich Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Nice work! Good to see people getting out in all conditions. Too many of my buddies are "fairweather fishermen", lol, sucks to be them!
danbo Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 (edited) lots of bass too? Edited May 20, 2008 by danbo
Stoty Posted May 20, 2008 Author Report Posted May 20, 2008 lots of bass too? Ya, about 5,382 and took a picture of each one too!

Victor Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Heck any morning spend fishing is a good morning! Agreed!! Great catch despite the bad weather conditions! wow 5,382 bass lol

Stoty Posted May 20, 2008 Author Report Posted May 20, 2008 Not sure if you have found the thread, but here are all the team's entries for the Tourny. 2008 Entries
Reef Runner Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Haven't had much time Stoty, just blew in from Punta Cana yesterday and I'm back at my desk playing catch up. Thanks for the link...will watch with anticipation. Too bad I can't help you guys out much until mid-June, LSAT studying that I've been slacking on. I might get out for a weekend to raise some numbers. on that note, I will make up my share once that damn test is over...so help me jebus.
Stoty Posted May 20, 2008 Author Report Posted May 20, 2008 Hahaha, right on. I am heading out again next Wednesday, and will hopefully top the 25" Pike. Good luck on your exams!
