l2p Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 (edited) Headed out for a couple hours just to wet the line since it was so nice out today. Needed to get some practice in for next weekend. Managed a couple fish along with plenty of suckers. first fish on the new pin thought somethin was odd about this sucker, cant put my finger on it though. it hit a chartreuse worm that i was fishing shallow cause i didnt want anymore suckers but it came up and took the worm, also had a pointier nose than all the other suckers i caught. i also caught a 3 inch minnow on the same worm... somehow..

MJL Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 (edited) Nicely done Mark...I've caught a fair number of those pointy nose suckers from western Lake O tribs...Ironically I've never caught from eastern tribs I've become a course fish connoisseur over the years trying to catch as many species of suckers as I can.LOL You still have your black loomis pin?

Spiel Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 Dem's some nice bright looking steelies. This one appears to be a Longnose Sucker and would you believe I don't ever recall catching one in the western Ontario tribs but they're numerous in Georgian Bay and Lake Huron tribs. Up that way they're often referred to as Mullet, don't ask me why. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longnose_Sucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l2p Posted April 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 Cool, thanks for the info. I knew there were several different species of suckers around. my first thought was a redhorse sucker but i dont think so now.. it had redish sides cant really tell from pic and it fought ALOT harder than any old regular sucker, this thing went up down sidways just like a bulldogging steelie exept it wasnt haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
