Hi all,

Got all my chores done pretty late yesterday, its hard to not keep stopping and playing with my baby son...he's all giggly and playful these days. Anyway at around 7pm both wife and baby were napping and i thought i'd hook up the boat and try a little pond up the road.

Went there opening weekend with a buddy and drew a blank apart from a few small pike. Surprisingly enough for such a small lake this lake has a good walleye population, and even a few bass.


GOT INTO A WALLEYE ABOUT AFTER AROUND 20 MINS






TROLLED AROUND FOR ANOTHER 1/2 HOUR WITH NO BITES, ONLY A LONE LOON FOR COMPANY






HOOKED INTO PSYCHO BABY PIKE, THOUGHT HE'D GET AWAY BY BITING THROUGH MY ANCHOR LINE....LOL









GOT A FEW MORE PIKE ON TOPWATER, ALL PRETTY SMALL THOUGH






TROLLING BACK TO THE TRUCK I GOT INTO A BETTER WALLEYE







All in all a great couple of hours mesing around on this small pond. All the walleye went back as this is such a small lake, the pike were also returned.

Great report and good fish. Good old pike, loonies, I have heard of them taking ducks from the surface and even tiny dogs from the shallows in Slapton leigh, not sure how true it is.

Nice report there Simon,, is that the same lake that you posted about when it was covered in 6 feet of ice during the winter ?
