May 20 2009-Beautiful Day

It was a beautiful day! The sun was shining, (for a change) and the temperature was warm, so we packed a lunch and headed out into the wild blue yonder.Although it was sunny and warm, it was also quite breezy, so we decided to troll out on the main lake. We hadn't gone very far ( the big flats ) when along came this Pike to join us on our cruise.Joanne is becoming an expert at hold up fish. This pike measured 26 inches and weighed about 3 lb. After a photo or two, the fish was released to fight another day!

We travelled about for almost 7 hours, before stopping to fish in a few calm bays. We were unable to hook into any more fish but it was a great way to spend a day off.
