A good breakfast is essential when one is preparing to do battle with the underwater dwellers.
Potatoes are from my garden, the eggs are from chickens raised by my friend who is with me on this trip.
What is breakfast without bacon and a nice piece of multigrain toast.
The coffee was shy and refused to have her picture taken.

Early start today as we have a 45 minute bush road ride ahead of us to get to today's lake.

Have a good one everybody.

Cheers

She is actually a Northern Pike. A very small one at just over two pounds but she won the award for first fish.

Lots cf comedians I see, good show lads.

He maybe hoping for a little chop on the lake. Then it's legal chumming.

Success at the lake Boys. Plenty of fish were caught, had a great shore lunch and spent quality time with my friend Greg and my brother Tom. Great end to the day when my oldest son joined us for dinner. I will be fishing with him on Saturday before heading home on Sunday.

Wolf track photo included. It was on the beach where we had our lunch. The Canadian coin is there for size comparison. It is about 1 inch across. Bottom line..huge wolf!

Today's adventure takes us to a small lake with Northern Pike, many of a large size. Steel leaders are mandatory as pike have a huge head and mouth that is full of razor sharp teeth. Pliers and Jaw spreaders are in the tackle box!

Cheers

Northern Pike Teeth (Interesting Fish Facts)

Northern pike have plenty of smaller needle-like and larger fang-like teeth. In fact, they can have up to 700 of them, and all of these teeth are razor-sharp. Pike do not shed all their teeth during winter, and they do not bite humans, but they can certainly hurt and injure a fisherman's hand.

Excellent catch, However, after the words of a famous Australian actor, "Those ain't fish, mate, these are fish."

 

[Jeff Hunt]

We got shut.out today but still had a great time. Cold front moved in and made the fish disappear. My brother has been fishing this lake for over 30 years and this is the first time not a single fish was brought in over the rail. Tommorow will be a better day.... I hope.

Karl ( Roche) and Terry ( Airframes) along with my American friend, Airshow Jason ( not a poster here ) back in 2015. Stumbled across these earlier tonight. Lots of Speckled Hens bought the farm that night on what was one of my best travels ever!

Cheers
