Title: Finally got out!
Post by: HD on August 08/19/18, 03:43:07 PM
I finally got the small boat out for some Pike trolling yesterday.... I caught a few, it was a great time to be on the water!

(All fish were released)

Nice, I always have a soft spot for trolling.  Maybe because my dad used to take us fishing and we would troll using a cane pole.  I have to add that when we first started going, we used a rented wooden row boat. Yes, we did troll by rowing around the lake.  Dang farmers never could tell the difference between work and relaxing.   :crazy:

So what are we supposed to put in a fish pic if we enter one?  I may just get a little more serious and do some nord trolling too.  That used to be my favorite thing when I was a kid.

More meat on that little bass and you can't tell the difference between sunnies and small bass.  We keep the babies and free the fighters.
