A quick Lake O report

[ckewley]

Working in the pharmaceutical field can be interesting & fun to frigg'n stressful at our production shutdowns. We are at one of the stressful times right now but what has made it rather fun is some of the people from around the globe that come to our work place to work on some of the specialised equipment. One such gentlemen is up from Arizona and working with him over the course of 2 weeks has been great so Bain (sleepsjigging) & I decide to take him out for some good old Canadian fun & fishing. We had a plan to take him up to Balsam Lake but plans changed due to me having to work so Bain took him to Simcoe & they caught various pan fish & some bass. So on the day I knew I wouldn't be involved at work we decided to take him out on the big blue & to say he is hooked is the understatement of the year. We were hoping to get into some Kings but they wouldn't play this day however the Bows showed up & put on some of the best acrobatic displays I've witnessed on the big lake. Just a fantastic day & wiped the stress away............ now back to the grind!

Nice going, we were out yesterday and the wind from the 2nd really mixed things up. We picked through small 5 lb Chinook for a few hours then found some warmer and also danced with rainbows and cohos. They sure are a Blast when they are smashing stuff in the top 25 fow, we ad a bunch launch into the air 50 ft off the back of the boat before we knew they were hooked

They seemed to be around the 30' mark & ya the first couple were air born before you could act. Caught a few shakers too (Kings), one didn't make it off the boat, turned into sushi....not my thing but not bad. We were out of St. Catharines yesterday
