I wanted to share my fishing outing over the weekend. I was fishing a small lake just outside Owen Sound over the long weekend. On Sunday, it was windy (NW) and about 10 degrees and the water temp was 13 degrees. I starting trolling about 8 am until using a bunch of different colour J-11 which normally pay off when fishing pike, after exhausting all my go to colours I changed it up to a rapala BX swimmer (silver) and with in minutes this beauty hit hard and the fight was on about 10 mins later I managed to drift back to my dock and finally land the fish. I didn't take any measurements but I think he was about 8lbs. The fish buried the top hook right in the side of his mouth and made for an easy hook removal, I released him back to fight another day (hopefully). I landed two more small pike in the boat and then finished my day around 1pm.
I was using 15lbs mono on my shimano curado DVS with a 25lbs seagar leader (2 foot long) and a St croix 6'6' med fast rod.
