NAW Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) I have just inherited a 12' aluminum boat from my Grandpa. I took it to Little Lake in Barrie to test it for leaks. Unfortunately it has 3 rivets that are sheared off, so it leaks pretty good. While we were on the water, I decided to throw a Hula Popper in the shallow water. I've heard the Largies in Little Lake make for good top water action. I've never fished top water before. The second cast, a decent Largie exploded out of the water, just missing my lure, and jumping a good 14" in the air. That was friggen cool to see them attack like that!! About 30 casts later, one hit his mark, and I was able land my first top water Large Mouth. I have only ever caught one Large Mouth before in my life, and it was only about 6" long. So I guess this is a first time, and a personal best for me. Edited July 20, 2009 by F to the Is-H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
