limeyangler Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Hi all, Got an hour of fishing in before sunset in front of the house on Lake Wabigoon. After a pretty miserable year where the weather has really messed up the fishing for walleye on "The Goon", it looks like we are actually getting a normal fall bite, and I have been consistently landing 20"+ fish over the last 2 weeks right off the shore at the bottom of our lawn, about time too....lol. tonight the lake gave up a rare treasure...and I landed a 31.5" walleye just as it was getting dark, my PB! I'm buzzing still...with a huge Cheshire cat grin. In all the excitement, I forgot to put the tourney sign in the pic even though I had it right there!...but I was kinda hurrying to get the fish back to the water to fight again another day...which it did Vid is kinda long and includes a few smaller fish before thebig guy at the very end. MY NEW PB WALLEYE
GBW Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 nice video Simon. I wish I could chuck a bait like you and catch that often... maybe I need to move... LOL
frozen-fire Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 That is a huge eye. I can't believe you catch all these fish right in front of your house.... oh, the jealousy. Congratulations on the personal best!
Bly Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Congrats! Not many things sweeter than catching fish like that from shore....especially when the shore line is your yard!
solopaddler Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Wow what a nice fish! Can't remember but do you ice fish in front of your place? I'd be building a hut if you don't have one yet.
SlowPoke Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Nice fish Simon! That'll be tough to beat, you might as well give up now!
Rich Clemens Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 That's just wrong ... to have a fishery like that in your back yard. (Sitting here in envy of course). Congrats on a beauty of a catch.
splashhopper Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 nice fish bummer about the OFC sign missing
Fish4Eyes Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Nice fish man . Must be nice to go into your yard and pull out something like that
BassAsin Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 way to go Simon thats a beast of a an eye, nice to be able to catch them right off the lawn mower.
Greencoachdog Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Excellent report, video, and pics Simon!!! Now that's a Walleye!!! Don't worry about the tourney sign, I've got a feeling you'll catch an even bigger one!!! Thanks for taking the time to post that report!
bigugli Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 That is one nice walleye. It sure is nice being able to walk out your door and toss a line. Boy do I miss it.
