Newfieman Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 It was around 12:00 p.m. Friday I got off work early and I had an itch I needed to scratch. So I hooked up the boat to the truck and called Fishing Fool. We decided to go up to lake Dalrymple for some pike action. We were in the water by 3:30 and headed to one of our lucky spots. Within minutes Fishing fool had his first pike on. It was not long after that a 3.5 lb large mouth hammered my spinner bait. We decided to throw some husky jerks and the fun had begun. We ended up pulling in 10 pike throughout the afternoon. What an afternoon of fishing.
Guest Johnny Bass Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 Great report. Its a nice lake to pass the time. Lots of snot rockets and some decent bass.
markiemark70 Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 I fished that lake as a child, and that is where I caught my first Pike at 12 years old. I would love to fish it again. Dont hear much about that lake. Thanks for the report.
Victor Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 Nice fish guys, can't think of a better way to spend a friday afternoon! Do you mind if I ask how deep you were fishing at Dalrymple? I've gone out there twice since bass opener and have only caught a 12" largie from some lily pads. Been throwing the spinnerbaits and no pike neither.
fishinfool Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 Hey Victor Next time you are going out, let me know and I will tell you a couple of spots to try for Walleye and Pike. I did the PikeMania Tournament there two years ago and we did quite well, probably got about 20 pike for the day. White seems to be the colour on that lake.
gone_fishin Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 does anybody know if Dalrymple Resort is the only place to rent a boat on that lake? they're charging $95 per day, and the boats they have only have 6hp motors on them... i'm not sure if i'm willing to pay that much again...
Mike the Pike Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 Great report Newf.That bass is a brute .Looks like ya had nice weather.
