3 lakes in a day......Mar 5th

Post by RJ »

Hey Folks,

Hit a few lakes with Big-O, Topwater, Gordo, Bacon and for a little while Fishing Freak.... :D

We hit a small lake that Fishing Freak had us meet him at.....looking for perch we ended up with a few OOS bass....couple of real dandies too....a quick pic....and back down the hole they went....

Gordo givin me a hand....

Fishing Freak ended up with one that would not come thru his 4 inch hole....so Big-O grabbed the power auger and drilled another hole right beside it....then....reached up to his shoulder into the second hole!.....reaching down he pulled it out for FF!...Nice work Big-O....I was howling laughing at him....

Here's Big-O drilling the second hole...

Image

Reachin in!
Image

And out she came!

Topwater with another bass....

The perch did show up....not the size we were lookin for....but Big-O got an 11 incher.....but the numbers were pretty good.....Bacon got a few pike too.....Nice meetin ya FF!

Bacon with one of his pike....

At about noon we decided to head over to Otter lake....Gordo was anxious to try out his home lake....frankly....we won't be going back... :lol: :lol: ....lots of dinky perch.....annoying size really..... :? .....Big-O and I each caught a big golden shiner... :shock: ....that was the cue to leave......

Off to the Big Rideau we went...and immediately we were onto fish....good average size perch.... :) ......then the bluegills moved in....the pannie bite was great......pretty much non-stop for the last 2 hours of daylight....

A nice set of gills....
Image


The highlight of my day was watching Big-O chase this muskrat around...trying to get a good pic of it......well...we were actually trying to catch it to get WIG a new hat!

Here he is!
Image


Most fish were taken on 1/64ths jig....tipped with either a chunk of worm or wax worms....white seemed to work best for me!

A great day to be on the ice with some of my favorite Hawk Talkers!

That hat has been thru a lot....thats the one I lost in Jan. 2004 fishing Quinte with RJ, rj caught it I tryed drying it on a Propane heater...caught fire :oops: :oops: , had to dunk it again :? , I was wearing that hat when my brother inlaws house caught fire....fought the fire with the vol. FD for about three hours , before back up arrived from Ottawa....hence the dark color...this poor old hat has been thru a lot.....and it is my favorite one ,out of the Three fish-hawk hats I have :D :D :D :D

Wow....what a great day....many thanks to fishingfreak for letting us in on his secret spot.....and IT WILL REMAIN A SECRET 8) it was a blast out there, Hey FF...how did you do after we left???

It was great to see Gordo out in the fresh air today, this was is first trip out side the house this winter Summer Boy :wink: :wink: you owe me $5.00

Topwater...if you want to go out in the boat this year...pay up the $5.00 you owe me :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :lol: :wink:


Thanks Rj for paying me the $5.00....the rest are sore loser's, Another great outing to put in the books thanks RJ ..sure you can't make it to the Niagra next weekend 8) :D

Bacon....great to get out on the ice with you again....we will do it again soon....real soon....you owe me $5.00 :lol: :wink: :wink:

three Lakes in one day....there is no possible way to estimate how many fish we caught today...but it was a Pile of them....i think RJ took the day with most fish caught!! We decided that the bass were coming to offten and moved :( to a different Lake, All of these bass came on 1/8 once or 1/64 once jigs...amazing a fish that size would take a jig that small FF ...if you get bass like that in the summer... you have one heck of a great Honey hole :lol: :lol: :lol: (no one bother asking where ,we won't tell you) :lol:

As far as the Muskrat goes....I thought WIG had lost his hat only to relieze that it wasen't his hat at all....maybe a brother to the hat :wink: I think that poor old muskrat and I were about the Same age...after all the running and Chasing....we both had to sit down have a smoke and catch our breath :oops: :oops: ... I'm got to start carry oxegen with me , trying to get Wild life shots for Wolfe...is getting to hard on me :oops: 8) :lol: :lol:

Now only a few more Days left...till I fly down to see Markus, hopfuly to get a few Rainbows and lakers......I can't wait :D :D :D

Thanks for coming down guys, it's to bad the bigger ones weren't biting.

It was great to finally meet you guys.

Big-o, This is a great bass lake in the summer. For how pressured it is I'm really surprised at the quality of fish in there. I endede up bringing 16 home, smallest was 9" biggest was 12". 4 were 11" or better. Just keep rotating through the hole and picked them up here and there.

Topwater, welcome to the P club, it took long enough. :lol:

Bacon, you can use that replica quote in any argument. :lol:

RJ, and big-o thanks for explaining how that there fish flasher thingy worked. Neat :lol:

Gordo, See you don't need high tech equipment, to catch big bass.

Anytime you want to give this lake a try for Bass, during the season, let me know and I'll meet you there.

Great meeting you all.
