Visiting a new client this Fall, I became aware of an access to a lake 21 minutes from my house that I didn't know about. Imagine living here for 20 years and not knowing! The lake is mostly shallow but looks like prime bass territory. Even though I just got back from three great days of trout fishing, it was far too nice today to hang around the house. We still have a couple of weeks of bass fishing. A boat was coming in just as I arrived. He said he had caught nothing but he did give me some info on the lake, some of which was not accurate and I wasted some paddling time. These fishers are unreliable!
I was going for bass but this 25+ inch pike was my only action. Intermediate line with a Mississippi Maiden fly. I'll post the fly when it becomes fly tying season. Everything is beat up now.
ST36F and my toes froze pretty soon so I quit after two hours. No big deal.....only a few minutes from home. I should have come with my canoe.
