miller Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 made it up to my uncles place for the first time this year. i was hoping to go up on opener but with work and plans falling through with a few friends i finally made it up. hit the road thursday night after i got off work and got up there at about 230 am only to be greeted by a tree laying across the driveway. with my friends car not being too offroad friendly i ended up breaking off many of the branches and holding the tree back while he drove through to the cottage. we unpacked our stuff then got some sleep. got up the next morning to do some shore fishing but only had one solid hit which shook it off. finally at around noon we had a boat set up and in the water and we were set for fishing all weekend. it ended up being one of the best weekends i've had up there. i caught quite a few fish and my friend (not much of an angler) caught his first of 2 species. the fish tally friday i caught 12 walleye. my friend caught his first ever pike saturday i beat my previous day by catching 16 walleye and 1 smallie. my friend managed to catch his second ever pike. sunday i managed another 16 walleye 2 smallies and 1 pike. and after losing 2 boatside my friend caught his first ever walleye and he was really happy monday i slept in and only got out for 2 hours before heading out but i managed another 3 walleye with one being my pb at 4lbs 10 ozs which beat my previous pb by only 5ozs haha time for some pics his first ever pike fish for the evening fry view from the upstairs bedroom lounging around average size walleye of the trip evening view while fishin his second ever pike overcast morning on my way another average walleye my pike failed picture attempt first ever walleye the cottage/house good current holding fish bay on the smaller river and finally my new pb walleye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
