Return from my first Quinte Trip

[dh99]

Hi Guys

Well I am back from my first trip to Quinte. We fished saturday around the lighthouse( I think that is where it is) and we caught 2 for the day.
I caught this one a taildancer



And my wife caught her biggest fish ever. I think it is around 10.5 to 11lbs. It was 29.5 inches long and had a 17.5 inche girth.



I consider it very good since it was the first time we used planer boards and ever fished that area. I tried the church and offshore boards and not sure which ones I like better. The offshore were better in the waves and easier to see but they didn't pull away from the boat as much. The Church boards didn't like the rough water but the pulled out further and the clips are easy.


THanks for all the tips everybody it was a great trip.

Nice fish dh congrats! Sorry we didn't see you but we avoided the traffic at the light house. BTW the church boards will run great in the rougher water just set the lead keel to the minus 1 position.

Hey, way to go dh


Nice to know you had some success. Now those are nice 'eyes

And now the Missus has had so much fun, it'll be a free pass for the next trip

...nice going dh and crew...

ahhh...that one your wife caught looks familiar...lol...10.5lbs that's my P.B...congratulations.

Well done dh...

Nice fish and photos...the church and off-shore boards are both good, but it will come down to a personal preference which ones you can read the best on the water. Both need some tuning to get them running the way you like, and every angler sets them up different

I am sure you have the Quinte bug now...

See out on Quinte,

Heard that Saturday wasn't a nice day, but you succeeded big time.

Any time a PB is taken is a good time.

Nicely done!! I'm fishing Quinte on Thursday and cannot wait.

Nice fish!!!!

[dskrizzy]

Great fish! I can imagine using planers for the first time cannot be easy. I dont know where I would even begin

Congrat's on the PB's!

[steve-hamilton]

rizzy, where to begin?

its actually rather easy.

put the line under the clamps (like a rigger), and let it out.....

thats it.
