Cabin Fever Sale At Bass Pro Shops

Posted: 21 Jan 2012 06:46 AM PST

Holy crap it was chilly outside this morning and it wasn't even windy out.

Jenny and I still like to go for our weekly Saturday morning walk for breakfast at Hynes restaurant here in Moncton, about a 5 minute walk.

I bundled up with about 6 layers of clothes, wrapped my scarf around my entire head. Kinda looked like a mummy walking up the street.

By the time we arrived my glassed were so fogged up and frozen I had to remove them to see where I was going. Sure wish my heart doctor didn't make me take blood thinners but I like being alive so I take them.

Cabin Fever 2011

All filled up with steak and eggs we returned home again. It wasn't quite so bad on the way home but I think that might have been from the huge breakfast heating us up.

Getting out for breakfast Saturday mornings is usually the time I get out during the coldest days of winter so I tend to get cabin fever sooner than most. It kind of made me laugh this morning when I saw the Bass Pro Shops Cabin Fever Sale ad block on my blog sidebar.

So for the next little while I am going to sit here in my nice warm home office and build my wish list. Maybe I can get Jenny and Steve to buy me some fishing related things. Got lots of guitar related gifts for Christmas but the only things I got for fishing were from myself.

Sight Fishing: Being Able To Spot Fish In The Water

Posted: 04 Jan 2012 08:01 AM PST

I have a fishing buddy I like to refer to as Eagle Eye Paul. He could see things from such a distance away that at first we didn't believe the things he said he saw, that we of course couldn't see.

It didn't take long before he had proved this over and over. He could even see fish in the water in place I couldn't and I can usually spot fish. I wonder how many I have missed over the years.

Well for those of us who don't have Paul's eagle eye vision, like myself, other skills are required or perhaps skill along with technology.

There are a lot of clues in and around the water's edge a fisher can use to determine how they will fish this particular spot. I have been fishing for 50 years and for many of those years it was pretty simple fishing gear so I had to use skill to do well.

When I am in water that is deeper than I can see or if I have Eagle Eye with me, I usually rely on a fish finder. It's so much better than sticking your head in the water to see what's down there. Casey has two Humminbird Fishfinder in his boat which is great because I get to see the structure as well even though we are on opposite ends of his boat.

The fact we don't see any fish on the fish finder doesn't mean they aren't there. It usually means they just aren't right there under the same path the boat is taking. That's why I like to look for structure and fish the structure.

If the fishing is good and the fish finder doesn't have a way to mark your spot then I like to line three spots on the shore so I can find my way back. I spent a lot of time on lakes with my canoe and portable Humminbird Fish Finder and loved locating new structure.

I've even looked at smaller fish finders for my float tube but I don't go far from shore in the tube so I can't really justify getting one. When the wind picks up I like being close to shore when float tubing.

But back to spotting fish in the water. Even though I can't see into the water I can see what's happening at the surface so I look for any activity that would indicate possible fish.

Jumping fish, hey that's a great indicator, although when Atlantic salmon fishing it doesn't mean they are going to take anything you throw at them. I love chasing jumping fish.
Jumping baitfish, are usually trying to escape being dinner. Give them something other than that bait fish to look at.
Birds that eat fish are worth watching and not just because they are awesome to watch. They can lead you directly to a great day of fishing.
Shoreline structure that extends into the water such as trees and points.
Shorelines can indicate sudden drop-offs or points that extend into deeper water.

There are plenty of indicators that will help you find fish whether you're fishing shorelines or off-shore. It just takes observing your surroundings but I have to admit I would rather take pictures of the scenery and use a Humminbird Fishfinder to locate the fish.

It’s The End of 2011. Yaaa We Made It. Whoo Who

Posted: 31 Dec 2011 11:41 AM PST

Look we got all dressed up to say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and that 2011 has been a great year.

Christmas at the Mann residence was about the most fun we had at Christmas since before Steve was a teenager. It was a load of fun and I actually got some of the things I asked for.

Didn't see any tickets to Florida under the tree though. Honey probably ate them.

Fishing in 2011

I had a fun year of fishing and of course what made it so much fun was being able to get out fishing with Casey and Jamie.

The water was higher for so much longer in 2011 and that really messed up the fishing although come fall the water dropped and things picked. I can't remember the last time there was a wetter summer but then again what did I have for breakfast today.

Jenny and I had great summer and my garden did pretty good for how wet it was. I also have to add that summer 2011 was the greenest summer I can remember. Everything stayed fresh looking and didn't get a chance to collect dust and dirt all summer.

I just thought I would write this little post kissing 2001 goodbye and looking forward to the day after my hangover, which I need to get started on now, so I have to go.

!! Happy New Year Friends !!

Dressing Tips For Real Winter Fishing

Posted: 22 Dec 2011 08:53 AM PST

I do most of my fishing in spring, summer and fall but winter fishing is an option, although I haven't done any ice fishing or winter fishing since I lived in Ontario many years ago.

Back then I didn't think about winter fishing clothes and did a lot of freezing. No so today.

So the first thing I do is to dress with layers to keep as warm as I want to be.

For me it's not about looking good, it's more about comfort. If I am freezing my ass off I want to either catching a heck of a lot of fish or I wan to go home. I don't care for frost bite and it doesn't take much for me to start shaking, then I can't even tie a proper knot.

I remember the first time I dressed in layers to go fishing. Once I got fishing and was all bundled up I could barely more around. It was hilarious according to my fishing buddies. After that I dressed a little loosely.

What Do I Wear Ice Fishing

You could spend money buying just the right clothing like my son does, but he still lives with us and doesn't pay the bills. So for me, I would rather spend my money on new fishing gear.

For that reason I start with my long johns, both top and bottoms. I wear them all winter long anyways. I like two piece so that I can remove one or the other depending on the day.

Some times I put on another tee shirt and then a nice warm winter shirt. The T-Shirt is usually only for the extra cold ones. Then it's aunt Hazel's gift of a wool sweater.

That setup is great for those days in winter when it's nice enough to have your big coat off for a bit. The wool sweater keeps any moisture off me.

After the sweater I will put on my winter jacket with the wool liner. Now the top half of my body is ready to go late November fishing or ice fishing.

Let's move down and put on some pants. I like lined winter pants but I will also bring my snowsuit bottoms. I don't use the coat as it's too bulky for my liking. Oh, maybe I should try it on without all my other stuff on. Just kidding.

If My Feet Are Cold I'm Cold

I remember back when I was a kid it wasn't my clothing that allowed me to freeze. It was winter boots that didn't fit properly. I grew up wearing hand-me-downs and of course they never fit right. It's important to have boots that fit correctly.

I like to be able to wear two pair of socks in my boots, a thin comfortable sock and a thicker wool sock. I also make sure my boots fit well without pinching my feet. Keep the feet in comfort and they will thank you.

Note: I always carry and extra set of socks in case my feet get wet. I never leave my feet wet in the winter while fishing.

Okay Now For The Hands

Now I'm nice and comfy, ready for a day of fishing in the winter. All that's left are my gloves and for that I like neoprene gloves that have finger tips that flip back.

The first pair my wife bought me as a fishing gift never saw a day of fishing as my dog Shadow ate them. That was the only thing of mine she ever ate. Maybe I don't take her fishing enough.

Cover Your Head And Protect Your Face

Some guys and gals can take the cold but I guess I'm a wimp that loves to fish but I don't like my ears going numb or my big nose.

I like to wear a hat that covers my head well and my ears, especially if it's windy.

For those days that are really windy and bitter cold I wouldn't think of going fishing without a scarf or a neoprene face mask. They may look funny but I'm still able to smile because my face isn't frozen.

So the key to a great day of fishing, even when it cold enough to freeze the, well I won't go there, but with the right winter fishing clothes you'll have a great time and remember it for all the right reasons.

5 Tips For Better Trout Fishing Success

Posted: 22 Nov 2011 09:20 AM PST

When it comes to fishing around the world trout fishing seems to be the most popular for most anglers. I would have to agree with that most of the time although bass fishing puts up a good fight for first place among sports fishers like myself here in North America.

I have been fishing for these rather abundant yet crafty fish using my spinning gear and fly fishing gear for about half a century. Trout fishing just never gets old whether I'm fishing a lake, pond, river or brook.

I live in North America, Canada actually and we have trout all the way from the east coast, where I currently live to the west coast where I'd love to take a fishing trip some day. The trout in it's many forms such as brookies or speckled, rainbow, brown and even lake trout are all over most parts of North America but they are not limited to N.A.

The Trout Habitat I Love To Fish

I really don't find fishing lakes for trout as exciting as I do fly fishing a stream for brookies probably because a brook is so much more visual. But I won't turn down a trip to a lake for some trout fishing.

One of my best fishing trips was a fly in trip into Quebec for lake trout and pike. A fishing trip I will not soon forget as I got to sight fish for spawning lake trout, my first chance to fly fish for lake trout.

We have rivers here in New Brunswick with Brown trout in them. I didn't even realize we had brown trout here so you can imagine how excited I was when I landed my first brown trout ever in a brook I was fishing for brook trout in.

Luck can be a big part of fishing and I enjoy making a cast that hooks into a fish I didn't expect.

My fishing buddies tend to think I'm lucky or have horse shoes up my behind when I catch a big one. Of course when it's them that makes the big catch it's all skill.

The truth is there are always a few things you can learn to do while fishing that will make you a better trout angler.

When trout fishing a stream don't get in the water until you have evaluated the lay of the water and structure. What's happening in and around the water that will tell you want might be happening under the water.
Knowing what the trout are feeding on will give you a big advantage so follow step one first and then step two is to turn over a few rocks that are under the water to see what kind of life is living there, then use a bait that matches what you find.
Having taken the time to read the water and surrounding for indicators of what the trout are feeding on and you have turned a few rock you now need to get your bait or fly where the fish live, but not on top of their head as you will spook them and never catch much other than dumb fish which are usually quite young and small.
Situate yourself so that you are not in a feeding lane and then cast ahead of the fish so that the bait or fly will drift into the fishes feeding zone. You are much more likely to get that big one when you're stealthy.
Patience is a virtue, especially when it comes to trout fishing as they are extremely easy to spook. Practice patience and you will do much better. When you accidently slap your bait or fly on the water and spook a fish, stop, take a break to give the fish a few minutes to calm down. That's when you get the big one and the other guy gets skunked.

Bonus Trout Fishing Tip

A real key to successful trout fishing is to go with a fishing setup that will give you the most excitement and sometimes that means going with a light setup for those smaller trout. I have so much more fun when I am fishing light tackle or fly fishing setup that matches the size of the trout I am fishing.

These 5 useful trout fishing tips will help you catch more trout and even bigger trout in the same water you couldn't catch them before. Happy fishing and remember to take a kid fishing, it could change their life like it did mine.

The Minn Kota Endura C2 30, A Trolling Motor To Meet Your Expectations

Posted: 18 Nov 2011 05:20 AM PST

Trolling motors give you the opportunity to find those best fresh water fishing hot spots. Let others fish those not so productive areas.

I love trolling motors. I even had one for my canoe and caught lots of big bass on Lake George, Harvey Lake. Even pickerel and trout from Cassidy Lake near Norton New Brunswick.

So today I'd like to share a bit about a specific fresh water trolling motors, the Minn Kota Endura C2 30 12V 30lb 30 Inch. Let's look at some benefits along with a few features but it wouldn't be complete without a look at any reported shortcomings of the Minn Kota Endura C2 30.

I don't mind spending money on fishing related products but I also love getting a real good deal because it means I can usually buy more fishing related stuff. Those of us who are really serious about our fishing and who have a boat loving buying new things for it.

Christmas is getting so close and it's the time I try to get my friends and family to think fishing when they think about what to buy me.

If you've had your mind set on a trolling motor you need to start giving the hints to your family. Wouldn't it be nice to get the Minn Kota Endura C2 30?

Minn Kota Endura C2 30 Characteristics

Start sharing all the characteristics with your family so they know you're excited about the Minn Kota Endura C2.

30 lbs of Thrust
30 Inch Shaft
5 Forward Speeds
3 Reverse Speeds
Six Inch Telescoping Handle
Lever Lock Bracket. A Mounting bracket that's the strongest
Runs Quietly so as not to disturb fish.
Special composite materials resist flexing warping and UV damage.
Indestructible composite shaft stronger than steel.
Uses 12 volt Battery – not included.

Yeah the Minn Kota Endura C2 is a legendary performer built to explore, built to last and backed up with our two year warranty. It's also designed specifically for boats that are small to medium in size.

This trolling motor has been designed for freshwater and is easily mounted using the lever lock bracket. To reduce friction as well as noise the Minn Kota Endura C2 has a ball bearing system that's extremely smooth so it doesn't scare off the fish.

Before I finally boat a trolling motor I used to curse the wind, a lot. Especially on Cassidy lake near Norton New Brunswick. The best fishing spot of course is the furthest spot from my vehicle. And of course once you get down in there the wind picks up and makes it tough for one person to paddle out of there. I usually ended up beaching the canoe and walking it along the shore line until I would get out of there. But it's such a good fishing spot.

Image via Wikipedia

The first time I used my new trolling motor on Cassidy Lake I cruised right out there. Actually caught a couple more pickerel on the way out. When the wind is blowing in there you can't stop paddling or you lose ground. With the my trolling motor I wasn't cursing the wind or the the slightest bit exhausted from paddling.

The places we fish for bass, pickerel and trout require a trolling motor as most boat motors would never get to where we like to fish. Take a few minutes to check out the Minn Kota Endura C2 30 and I am sure you will have more productive days on the water.

Checking Out Shimano Fishing Reels

Posted: 17 Nov 2011 05:34 AM PST

Well I'd say fishing season, for most of us here in New Brunswick is over for 2011. However Christmas is just around the corner and my dreams of fishing 2012 has just begun.

Last night I think I had just hooked into a personal best for Chain pickerel. I got so excited I woke up. Will have to make that dream a reality in 2012.

I like Shimano reels and have put in a lot of hours watching Bob Izumi fishing. So I'm not sure what possessed me to buy a cheap rod and reel combo that wasn't from Shimano.

Let me tell you briefly what happened with that combo. First, like I said, it wasn't a Shimano system.

Last year I bought an Ugly Stick and Shakespeare Reel combo along with some new braided line. This was meant to be a backup system to my current 20 year old rods and reels.

Both still work fine but being more than 20 years old I thought it was time to purchase a backup system.

The next time Jamie and I went fishing I pulled out my new fishing combo and made a cast which was almost double what I was getting with my old system.

I was impressed and after a couple of casts had my first chain pickerel on the line. He was big enough that he was pulling drag but not a huge fish by any stretch.

He took a dive, pulling drag, and bent my rod over good. Just then a sliver of rod peeled back about 6 inches. What the hell was up with that. I cursed for a couple of minutes but was able to land my 23" chain pickerel.

As if that wasn't annoying enough I could take the system back but then the braid started to loop over the top of the reel causes loops and making it hard to cast. To make it even more annoying the line would also do a flip and hook itself on the clasp used to hold the line and hook.

All in all the new but really affordable rod/reel combo sucked. I'm going back to Shimano.

It's so easy to get overwhelmed when you walk into a fishing supply shop. I guess I should have put on my Shimano blinders so I could ignore the other reels and combos.

I am not gentle with my fishing gear. Actually I can be quite tough on my fishing rods and reels. I throw them down to grab another, sometimes step on them and seldom clean them. Am I bad or what but I buy good equipment that lasts for years, even with the treatment I give them.

Shimano fishing reels are designed to last and handle most fishing situations. So let's take a few minutes and look at three sturdy Shimano fishing reels I am sure you'll like.

Shimano Stella SW

I may not get the opportunity to do much saltwater fishing but other do so here is a good example of a saltwater reel from Shimano.

The Shimano Stella SW, a saltwater fishing reel that will give you that long distance cast you need, every time. These Stella SW reels are designed to handle the big fish like Tuna and even Marlin without any difficulty.

Shimano has designed the sturdy drag system that can quickly tire out even the biggest fish.

This reel also has an Anti-Corrosive coating that of course resists damage brought on by saltwater corrosion. This will keep your Shimano Stella SW catching fishing for years to come.

Shimano Stella 2500 Fe

The Shimano Stella 2500 Fe is a fishing reel for about any situation and has a number of unique features to help get the job done.

Shimano has models for both freshwater and saltwater. The Stella 2500 Fe also includes a protected corrosion resistant ball bearing compartment. And to make your reel last even longer the drag system has been waterproofed.

The size of the gears has been increased by the new X-Ship which keeps everything in exact alignment.

Shimano Sustain 8000 Fe

Fishers all around the globe put the Shimano Sustain 8000 Fe reel at the top of their list. The reason is the Sustain Fe is both durable and will last. It makes for a great fishing experience.

The Sustain FE features the new Paladin Gear Durability Enhancement, Propulsion line Management System and Aero Wrap II Oscillation. That doesn't mean a lot to me other than it can cast a country mile, year after year.

These are just some of the features of three top class Shimano reels and they are worth every dollar spent on them, reliable and durable they are reels that will give many years of great service.

3 Fly Fishing Tips To Help Catch More Brook Trout

Posted: 07 Nov 2011 06:21 AM PST

My love of fishing began just about 50 years ago when I moved from Toronto to a foster home in the country. It was a 100 acre beef farm with a river running through the back end. I spent a lot of hours fishing for catfish. It was were I went get rid of stress.

Those memories of fishing are as fresh in my mind today as they were 50 years ago. Take a kid fishing and change a life.

I couldn’t wait to get out of that foster home and eventually moved to New Brunswick Canada where I still had blood relatives.

It was New Brunswick where I learned how to use a fly rod for the first time and spent the next 5 years finding and fly fishing every trout streams, brook and beaver pond I could find. I also spent a lot of time fly fishing for Atlantic salmon but that’s for another post.

Trout Fishing Tip #1 – Patience Wins The Day

As many years as I have been fishing I still get more excited the closer I get to a fishing spot.

I used to be the first to the water and usually the first to catch a fish but I wonder just how many bigger, wiser fish I spooked being in such a hurry.

I remember watching brother-in-law Joe, the guy who taught me to use a fly rod. He was slow and pokey but it turns out that he was more methodical about fly fishing and would always catch the bigger fish. it took me a few years to calm down enough to pay attention to him.

Joe would get all geared up, then he would creep down to the edge of the water, find a comfy rock and have a coffee while watching what was going on in and around the water.

Trout Fishing Tip #2 – Being Stealthy Wins The Day, Again

I learned a bit of patience from Joe but I learned to be a stealthy fly fishing from a college professor who was an avid fly fisher.

My professor asked me if I wanted to go fly fishing after supper as he knew I carried my fishing gear everywhere I went.

Well he took me to a spot I have fished many times and caught some nice fat 12 and 13 inch brookies. Nothing any bigger than that there, I thought.

Well I was about to find out there were much bigger brookies in that brook.

We didn’t take the same path I usually took to fish this spot. He took me up river a bit where we crossed to the other side and came back down to where I usually start fishing.

Before getting to the brook he started to crouch and almost crawled to a tree right on the river bank. From behind the tree he pointed out a little riffle of water going under an overhanging tree on the other bank.

He made one false cast to get the line out and then changed his direction and landed a small dry fly at the beginning of the riffle and let it drift under the tree. A huge splash and he had on a brook trout that could eat the trout I usually catch there.

I was blown away when he netted the first 18 inch brook trout I had ever seen.

He said to give that spot a break for a few minutes and we moved to the next spot where he did the same thing. Kinda crawled to a spot he could get a good cast with his fly, without being seen by any fish. Heck I used to just walk up and start casting.

This time he hooked into a 16 inch brookie.

The next spot it was my turn. I did all the stealth and tried to keep low in the tall grass. I had a bit of trouble making a cast in that position and my fly slapped the water. Big mistake when you’re fly fishing spooky fish like brook trout.

I did hook a 13 inch brook trout. Guess he wasn’t as smart as those bigger brookies who took off when I smacked the water.

Trout Fishing Tip #3 – Learn To Read The Water

Back to brother-in-law Joe who taught me to fly fish with a bit of patience. Well Joe also taught me about reading my surroundings. Something I have taught many people over the years.

He'd sit there sipping his coffee and reading the river for potential fish locations were we could take a fish.

Once he had them pointed out we would watch those spots. It was amazing to me when we would see a brookie take something from the surface, exactly where he showed me.

The more I observed the better I got at observing which showed in the numbers of fish I was catching on the fly. I actually got to the point where people I took fishing were impressed with my talents, talents I had to learn from others.

Nov. 03, 2011: Latest I Have Been Fishing in New Brunswick

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 03:32 AM PDT

Thanks to Casey I was not only able to fish a number of new waters here in New Brunswick Canada in 2011 but I also got to fish later than I have ever fished here, in more than 30 years.

A Clear Bright But Chilly Morning on the Oromocto River New Brunswick

We saw a lot of fog on the water we passed on the way to Oromocto from Moncton and Hopewell Cape. The Saint John river was mostly hidden by the fog but the Oromocto didn't have any fog, just a little mist about an inch or two above the water.

Blessed With A Great Day Weather Wise

We were fortunate to have a really nice day. It was a little nippy when we launched at 7am. I believe it was just 4 degrees but no wind, well until Casey opened up the motor and headed up river.

Sure glad I packed gloves, a toque and several layers of clothing with me so I was comfortable all day long. I was also glad I was sitting with my back to the bow of the boat when he took off as the breeze created was just a tad chilly on the face.

I think when Jamie and I were fish the Oromocto river on October 22 we took 3 roundabouts to get to the launch. Not sure how Casey got us to the same launch point with just one roundabout.

Okay Jamie what's with the making us go around in circles so much.

The water was down even more than when Jamie and I were there last. and a few of the spots we were catching bass we actually dried up.

I Managed To Catch The First Pickerel

I have to say that I love it when I catch the first fish although it would be a nice gesture to let someone else get the first fish considering they had the boat and did all the driving. Thanks Casey.

I decided to start the day with a Red Devil as it had done me well on my last trip out. The last day out they were swallowing that thing, not just smacking at it.

Early on I turned a couple of what I thought were smallmouth bass but I'm never really sure until I see more of there body. They didn't take, only looking I guess. Maybe I should have been retrieving a bit slower as the water temp was only 38C.

After a bit I caught the first pickerel of the day. This year the fishing was so hot and it was always a good feeling to get that first one so as not to be skunked, which we narrowly avoided with just 2 fish each for the entire day.

My first pickerel was about 20 inches but when Casey asked if I wanted a pictures I said no and released it, thinking we were going to get a whole lot more of them.

Casey wasn't far behind. Soon after he landed his first pickerel of the day which was just a bit smaller than mine. How generous of him.

We didn't have any further luck in the Oromocto but when we reached French lake we stopped in hooked our two biggest fish of the day. Mine was a 23 inch monster while Casey's was just 22 inches, one inch shy of a monster.

All too soon it was time to go home so we headed back towards Oromocto and another year of fishing for myself has ended. I have lots of great memories and pictures to last the next six months while I get ready for next year. Thanks to both Casey and Jamie for getting me there.

Fished The Oromocto River Again October 22nd

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 03:23 AM PDT

Jamie Does His Happy Dance

Can you tell by the image on the left that Jamie was having fun. I think he's doing his happy dance. Heck I didn't even know he could dance.

I was doing the happy dance in my head so as not to expend too much energy. I needed it for the rest of the day.

I will have to send this image to my sister in Newfoundland as Jamie, with his tougue covered ball cap, gum rubbers, rain gear and life vest on remind me a lot of her husband.

Picked The Oromocto Over The Saint John River

Fishing the Saint John river in a little canoe can be a bit nerve racking when a boat flies by at high speed or the wind picks up a bit too much making high waves. For that reason we decided the Oromocto river would be better.

Plus the Oromocto isn't as wide and has a nice wall of trees on both sides to help with any wind that might come up.

It was nice to see the sun but then I was blind when I looked in that direction, which was the direction I was sitting, of course. So glad I didn't have a hang over.

My glasses don't get very dark so I just couldn't look in that direction, so I was kinda glad when the clouds moved in front of the sun again.

The Sun Rise Lights The Forest

I am sure you'll agree that the sun made the trees look awesome.

Let The Action Begin

Jamie didn't wait for me to catch the first fish like he normally does. About 20 minutes after we started he switched from a firetiger pattern lure to a 5" green senko worm, wacky rigged.

A couple of casts to the structure along the shore and he had his first fish on, a couple minutes later he landed it. Of course I did a great job with Jamie's rubber net.

A great start to the day and I guess it was okay, after all it was Jamie's car and canoe and trolling motor and he was the one driving.

"Now you have the first, biggest and most fish, so far"

Not long after, maybe 10 minutes, I had my first strike and landed a somewhat smaller smallmouth using a #3 Silver & White Mepps with a skirt of white feathers.

I tried to show the Mepps in the image on the left but I think I hid it more than showed it.

Compared to a lot of our fishing season this was a great start to our day.

Actually it was a perfect in my books. NOT cold, NOT windy and the fish were active, who could ask for more.

The two best lures of the day for me were the Silver & White Mepps, and the Red Devils.

Just Trolling Along, La La Laaa

Jamie came prepared to fish all day from the canoe so he brought his trolling motor along. I would rather expend my energy fishing over paddling anyways. You can see the bracket that fastens the trolling motor to the canoe, so glad he has that.

If we were paddling we would never had made it so far up the Oromocto river and I would have been worn out long before the end of the day.

Jamie picked the right time to turn around and head back to the launch point. The trolling motor battery ran for almost 12 hours but about 15 minutes before we were back we could notice we were slowing down.

Jamie grabbed the paddle and helped the trolling motor along. About the distance I can throw a stone the battery died for the day.

If Jamie didn't bring so much food and tackle I am sure the battery would have lasted all the way back. But then again he could have left me home to save energy. I better be quiet. Ha Ha

Jamie, How Are You Able To Fit In The Canoe?

Didn't Produce A Single Strike Trolling

The majority of our fishing was casting into the trees, literally. However we did a fair amount of trolling throughout the day but never had a single strike trolling, not even a perch.

Strange that we would catch so many fish in the structure but not a single strike trolling.

Our Biggest Bass of The Day

Jamie started the day with the biggest, the first and the most but it didn't take me long to catch up.

My biggest fattest smallmouth bass of the day, on the left, was all of 18 inches in length.

He jumped a number of times and each time I was sure I was going to lose it.

When the jumping failed to release the smallie Jamie did his best using the net but it still remained hooked. The hook did however fall out in Jamie's rubber net.

Jamie's biggest bass of the day was 16 inches and fought like it was at least 19".

I went through a section of the river where I was catching pickerel after pickerel and one fat perch. The perch was a fat little guy and the pickerel were a respectable size. I have to thank Jamie for that though as he was catching all the little guys to keep them out of my way.

The biggest of the bass for the day did not come from the trees. Instead they came from the little inlets along the river, even if the inlet only went ten feet into the bank. I love casting to to those spots as I have caught my biggest bass and pickerel on those spots.

Near Sighted Pickerel

I was just about to close the post for today but then I remembered this one pickerel.

I was reeling in the Silver Mepps I was using and had it to a point I could see it near the surface. I could see a pickerel following it so I sped up the retrieve a little which of course caused the pickerel to speed up. But it sped so fast it over took the lure and swam right over top of it with it's back out of the water. Maybe you had to be there but I thought it was the funniest thing.
