bhearsum Posted August 16, 2009 Report Posted August 16, 2009 My fiancee and I went out on Island Lake to do some bassing. Didn't do great, but got my first bass from that lake. Here is Mr. Grumpy: Another shot: A pike: There were two other pike, too. The first one never made it into the boat (it got loose as we were fiddling with the net). The other one was a surprise to me. I thought I'd got snagged on some weeds and was very very slowly getting my line back in. A huge clump of weeds surfaced when my fiancee noticed another line surfacing as well. At the end of it were some weeds and a small pike! He got stuck on a very large hook. With some fuss we managed to get him loose and with a bit of help swam off OK. The was my third time at Island Lake and other than losing a lure every time it's a pretty decent place for someone who doesn't own their own boat!
Syn Posted August 16, 2009 Report Posted August 16, 2009 good catches. I use to go there but the dam 12v electric motor would take us forever to get around on the lake. Nearly impossible to get anywhere with a headwind. If you want to catch some big bass go here: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source...mp;t=h&z=17 There are some fallen tree branches there on the south side across from the houses where fat LMB are holding. I use to twitch plastic worms there to catch them. IIRC the first house, sometimes the hot blonde woman would come out to fish in her tiny bikini. Bonus!

Haha, thanks for the tip, we'll give that a try next time!
