Banger68 Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) I took my son out for a little pike fishing this weekend. Loaded up the 12' tinny headed for Robson Lake. It's a small lake northeast of Durham on the Bruce pen. On the trip up I'm explaining what a pike is and his eyes keep growing bigger. I think it was in fear, not anticipation. LOL. We get out there and starting throwing the same as I was catching with up in Parry Sound ... nothing. So, I put on a big sucker minnow under a bobber for him. Well we didn't have to wait for long and the bobber went down with enthusiasm. A couple reminders to keep his rod up and he brought in his 1st pike. I wasn't bad at about 20". I'm kicking myself for not getting a picture. He had another one on a couple minutes later but lost it. When he brought the minnow in (what was left of it anyways) he piped up in a loud voice "what happened to him?!". So,"remember those teeth" I told you about. Soon after some gloomy clouds started coming in so I called it a day. But he had a couple good stories for his Mom and sister about the strong Pike and the mushed up minnow.

Banger68 Posted June 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Tnx, he is a little bass fishing machine. He is still not old enough that it gets boring when the fishing is slow though. My daughter used to fish with me a fair bit, but she doesn't like it much anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
