short report

[Bly]

Cliff and I have been asked recently if we ever get skunked.....

 

It was my turn to fish last night, was out from about 9pm until 11pm and nothing! Had a few line bumps but no takers. I did however see a very nice pike in the area.......pulled in the carp line, grabbed my other rod and made a few casts. Didn't get to try for long...pike bolted and just as I was wondering where it went I saw another large dark profile in the water.....upon closer inspection.....I saw this.....

 

 

 

 

After that, I tried carping for a bit longer but nothing.....ah well..it happens!!

I was wondering what that smell was. It was pretty bad. LOL! Better to be out and seeing what you saw then not getting out at all. Still a good night out IMO.

Cheers!

If it hadn't been swimming in that location, I might have considered it......then again, not sure it would have fit in my net, bigger than it looks in the picture.

 

 

A skunk like last night doesn't bother me.....I had spent the daytime with two 5 year olds.....I would have been happy to sit there last night even without fishing LOL
