Almost 60 hours in the past 3 weeks, but we finally took the stink

[irishfield]

Nothing big, caught with no less than 80 feet left on our trolling path before packing things up at 4 today. Caught at 3:56

 

Came on Andy's line, my boat. He reeled it in, clipped the hooks etc but I get the picture, it's how we troll !!

Not a bad way to spend 60 hrs! Especially with the weather last week.

 

Nice fish!

 

[misfish]

Andy? Heard he gave up fishing.

 

Nice to see ya getting out there Wayne. Nice fish guys.

[irishfield]

Nah.. he sold his boat, but certainly isn't giving up on fishing.

Nice to see

[misfish]

Dang, That means I,ll have to move of his ice fishing spots now. LOL

 

Good to hear .

[Rod Caster]

could have been worse, you could have caught that in the first 4 minutes of your 60 hrs

[mike rousseau]

60 hours...

 

Ouch

 

Nice catch tho

[captpierre]

That's patience for sure.

Good on you to hang in there

Any decent ski like that from G Bay or the French is somehow worth about 20 skis from the Kawarthas or Haliburton IMO. I'd rather fish fall skis and get skunked where you guys were than catch a couple on Balsam.

[irishfield]

Only net that we've seen hit the water from any of the boats out in the past 3 weeks and no "chatter" as to anyone catching fish. Anyone is welcome to come up and show us how it's done.

Edit as Chris posted same time, I'd do a thousand fish free hours on Georgian Bay before constantly pulling weeds on Scugog ever again!

Sweet !

Wish I had more time to get out for some fall fishing.

 

Good shooting Wayne.

[DaveRoach]

Great catch, hard work rewarded....

[Sinker]

Nice! Tell Andy I said hi. Hope to see him on the ice! Just trolling the bay with the pair of you would be a blast, never mind actually catching!

[irishfield]

I'm pretty sure we'll be out again next week Shayne... do you feel a cold coming on or the arrival of anal glaucoma (can't see my coming to work)

[Sinker]

Im away hunting next week. My fishing takes a back seat now til ice up.....gotta kill meat lol

[Gnote]

Nice fish wayne! In my boat its a boat fish too?

[bigbuck]

Good stuff!!!! Persistence pays dividends!! GBay has been pretty tight with the big 'skis this year. I have a couple friends who were out daily for the past few weeks and were skunked. They usually get some nice supertankers every year (last years fatty was a 54 out of HH).

[ketchenany]

nice fish Wayne.

[moxie]

Better than smelling like skunk. Just an appetizer. Good luck .

[LostAnotherOne]

Hard work pays off eventually. Nice catch

[wormdunker]

Nice fish Wayne! I'm not so sure my patience would enable me to land 1 fish in 60 hours of trolling! LOL!

[Mister G]

Nice fish Wayne! I'm not so sure my patience would enable me to land 1 fish in 60 hours of trolling! LOL!

I agree, 59 hours and 50 minutes of boredom for one fish that tastes like crap is not my cup of tea either.

[lew]

Good to see you boys finally got into one Wayne.

[Whopper]

Good to see you two were rewarded for your efforts.

Beats the heck of what I've been doing
