botbot went fishing for pike

[splashhopper]

Well, botbot and I finally got a weekend for a daddy daughter day of fishing yesterday.

 

I took her up near Paisley to try for some Pike fishing:

 

We tried a couple of spots on back roads that looked promising with lots of cover for the pike:

 

We were floating large live minnows under the big floats.

 

Kind of surprised we didn't get anything at this spot, since I caught two there in the past few weeks.

 

Bot did a little toe tapping to keep warm >

 

we took a look at this spot along the county road too

 

botbot is wondering about this spot too >>

 

botbot thinks she may as well practice her Taekwondo near this pond if there are "no pike here either daddy"

 

"Is that where pike like to swim daddy " ?

 

Daddy: I'm bored !! ( the dreaded words two hours away from home... )

 

So we drove a little further and came upon this at the next spot>>

 

We scared it away

 

And tried out luck at this inlet from the marsh area

 

no luck here... but it is "really pretty daddy"

 

Let's try over there daddy >>>

 

"how about down there daddy" ?

 

"Daddy: I am gonna try for some bluegills"

 

"Daddy: I know this is a bass,, and I know it is "out of season", but can you take a picture of the biggest one I EVER caught? Please daddy.... pleeeeeze!

 

Ok... but then right back in the water i don't need any grief from the MNR !(or OFC for that matter..

 

And that was the end of the fishing.... we were hunnngry.... so we stopped for a burger.

 

All in all, botbot and I had a great daddy daughter day together,,,and I think we will be doing it again for Fathers day next week... maybe start a new tradition for her and i.

 

Thanks for all your support and we hope to add numbers to our team soon.

What a fantastic post with some terrific photos of a beautiful area.

You are very fortunate to have a built in fishing partner.

Thanks for taking the time to post and congratulations on some irreplaceable father-daughter time!

Thanx for the CD Cliff. Maybe we could go fishing together someday with you and your daughter.
