SUNDAY MORNING CATCH

I had thought that I might like to go fishing on my own this weekend so I got some stuff together and headed out at about 9:30am. I was headed to the Mississaugi. And it was overcast - maybe some pickerel...
On my 4th cast into the rapids I hooked into something that was a decent size. It pulled line out but I kept the line taught. My rod is about 10' long and it is a little hard to net your own fish so I backed up closer to shore - better footing too. I did manage to maneuver it into the net when he was ready - a nice big bass!!! I had to let it go because the season isn't yet open. I retied, fresh worm and cast again. I had a couple of good hits and he took 4 worms - I was almost going to try a "stinger" hook. But I got him on. Put up a nice fight and took line also. It was a nice rainbow!! I again backed up closer to shore and landed him. One fish in the basket!! I hooked into a smaller bass, let him go and then nothing else. I was home by 11am with a nice rainbow. Not bad for a girl...
See Ya Bye

  1. Nice fish! You went fishing alone with bears on the prowl. They are hungry and will eat you and your fish. Hope you had your 20 gauge with you
