Pacemaker Fishing Forum

When Bev and I were emailing back and forth, he asked me where we were going. Hmmmm....

I called him and before I could speak he said, "let's get a breakfast sammie at the Filling Co., then we can go out of Algonkian and run up river and catch them up. We can be done at mid day and then head over to Cubasi Bistro for a Cuban sammie".  Who can argue that plan??

So...we were on the water at 7ish but we had a delay. A fella in a jet ski was trying to get the boat started but it seemed that his battery was weak...or dead. After chatting to try to figure it out, we towed him back to the ramp as he had drifted down a bit. God deed for the day! Check!

We started up close and I had Bev throwing top water but we got no sniffs. I was able to get the skunk off the boat.



We then headed up to where Bob and I caught some last week...



... but the river had dropped almost a foot since then. Kinda took the spot away but I was able to land a other one.



Now it was time to go up river a bit more and it did not take long for Bev to take his skunk off!





Lots of birds, squirrel and carp scurrying around today.



Finally, we went all the way up (just a hair chilly).

Fish were in eddies mostly. I did have one on that seemed bigger but we never saw it before he got off.

For the next couple of hours, we caught some smallies!







The last hour or so was slow. The water was too low where I wanted to focus. But we managed a couple more before quitting time and we were tied at 6 each.

Right before we ended, I got slammed by Mr. Slimie!





It was time to go so down river we went. It was a great, comfortable ride back.

We put the boat up and away and we were of to Cubasi Bistro where we had another great lunch!



We split the Cuban Sammie. They are HUGE!

Speaking if HUGE (a politician says that a lot), there is a major golf (LIV) tourney going on at Trump's golf course on Lowes Island. We could see the tents and TV platforms.



Home by 2:30p...can't beat that!
