simcoe pike report, may 21

[pikeie]

well tinbanger and i were able to get out of the house nice and early today, we got up at 4:30am and were on our way shortly after. we got to the launch and the water was nice and calm, but it was just a tad cold lol, good thing for the floater suits lol. so we get to one of our "secret" spots and start to fish some shallow structure. fish that area for 20 min without a hit so we moved out deeper and fished some weedlines and weed flats. not long after tinbanger gets the first fish of the day not big but took the spoon very deep blod was everywhere so we had to keep it, the fish was around 24-26 inches.

so i start to thorw around a red and white williams wabler and it gets smashed i set the hook and the fish starts coming in easy thought it was just a hammer handle but once it got within 10 feet from the boat it took off and wouldnt stop lol.

so i got the fish turned around and started to gain some line on him and after some acrobatics the fish found its way into the net. i realised that the fish wasnt that long only 30.5 inches in length but it had a huge gut on it and definatly weighed over 10 lbs.

so right now we have got 2 fish and havent been fishing long. i through in a firetiger inline spinner and gets hit right when it hits the water i get the fish to the boat and it is another hamerhandle arought 26 inches i grab the leader to bring it in the boat and the fish swings its head and pops off good i didnt have to touch that slimey bugger lol.
