strakey Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Fantastic post solo nice to see the bass active early on in the year. I have a cottage not far from yours near labrinyth lake, im pretty sure you know where it is. I could tell you where there is a nice lake for rainbows andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccmtcanada Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Great to see that you two finally got to meet and fish together after all this time! I'd gladly fish with either of you at any time! Even though one lake was a bust, the adventure was still there...and that's part of the whole experience. Great report and pictures...great looking Pike there Jason!

holdfast Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Totally Awsome Report Solo, What a Bonus Pike and the Bass are not too Bad. Love the Picture of the Predator Kill and liked the fact it took you two trips, the second getting the Canoe. Done that a few times. Question. Was that Pike on one of the Back Lakes? Disd you know that they could be that Size. Also if it was a Back lake the Pike was caught/ is it a local secret?, or unknown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Question. Was that Pike on one of the Back Lakes? Disd you know that they could be that Size. Also if it was a Back lake the Pike was caught/ is it a local secret?, or unknown. Rob the pike was indeed caught in the 2nd back lake. Not a secret lake (there's not many of those anymore), but lightly fished for sure. In my travels north of Armstrong and beyond I've caught numerous pike that size and larger in some of the tiniest most unassuming lakes you could possibly imagine. So yeah, the possibility always exists for larger than average pike in these small back lakes. They're not pike factories so you don't go expecting to catch one, but seasonally the possibility can be quite high that you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leecher Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Excellent report and pics Mike Man talk about high waters Hope there weren't any damage to your cottage or the surroundings. It's such a beautiful countryside you guys got to hike in, aside from mother nature's sick sense of humour, truly paradise land Jason certainly go into a monster gator Congratulations to him Too bad about not getting into some specks.... I'm sure that you'll get them next time. Thanks for sharing that awesome trip with us Leechman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike the Pike Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 That was an absolute pleasure to read this report Mike.What a beatiful Pike.

Thank you so much for putting this report together it is a pleasure to have you as a member on this board. Your contribution is endless same goes for your writing skills .

solopaddler Posted May 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Now how about this summer's weather what will this summer bring? In my best hippy dippy weatherman voice: "Our summer nights will be mostly.....DARK, followed by widely scattered light each morning. Wind? Yes of course! Much of our weather will be influenced by a Canadian low...... not to be confused with a Mexican high! Hope that helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
