Catch of the day [Fishing]
-
First time fishing since I was about 9y/o, this was the catch of the day….
-
Beautiful canoe @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot
-
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot smallmouth bass are my favorite fish to catch. They fight extremely hard for their size. Nice catch!
-
Thanks guys! Just bought my first property, it’s on a beautiful lake - figured it’s a good time to take up fishing. The sellers wanted to keep the cedar strip canoe, but I insisted it belonged here
-
Where are you located fishing Smallie's @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot ?
-
Wolfe Lake, South Frontenac, Ontario.

I've spent a lot of time smallmouth fishing in Ontario, near Lac Seul.
We crushed em on Topwaters called Tiny Torpedo's

My buddy and I have been fishing together for over 20 years. Over the last 5-6 years we’ve been on the quest for golden trout. They are very rare. Hard to catch. And live in the most remote and difficult places to get to. For the last several years we’ve made an annual pilgrimage to The Wind River Range of Wyoming where golden trout can be found deep in the high alpine lakes. We’ve never been able to catch one.
This year, we hiked a total of 40 miles into the Winds. The lakes still had ice on them, but had started to thaw. Prime time for goldens before the temperatures warm and the golden trout swim deep into the lakes making them almost impossible to catch.
This year, our diligence paid off!!

@Mizmazzle amazing story and bond with your friend. Incredible scenery and finally found the trout!
-
@jordanscollected you get it dude!! It was all of that!! My buddy and I were hugging and laughing and just riding that wave of accomplishment. Still are a few days later. Will be for quite some time I’m sure haha.

Caught a few good ones today. 30” northern, and a couple decent bass that fought above their weight.
In a couple weeks I’m acquiring a Muskie rod so I’ll get skunked and a sore arm for that point forward.

@jordanscollected wow nice job man. Those fish are so beautiful. I grew up on a lake and fished a lot. Caught a fair share of bass and always wanted to snag a pike but never did. That pike is just so neat looking. Is that your boat?
-
@Oaktavia Thanks Man! That northern was bigger in real life. Super fat and healthy. A couple pics and he swam right off. They fight hard and have huge teeth.
Yes that my Lund boat. It’s smaller (16.5 feet) but has a nice 4-stroke motor and it gets around the lakes here perfect. It was handed down to me from my father when he retired. So it’s been in our family since ‘99 when it was new.
