Default What a Day To Be On The Water.

On a rare day in southern AB there was no wind.What a great afternoon to be on the water with Wayne Christe. The only thing better than the weather was the fishing. We had action all afternoon,landing 17 pike.Got beat by Wayne 10 to 7. Nothing big,a few maybe 5lbs.The water is very clear for this time of year so you could see the fish chasing your bait.Quite a few right at the boat.And with the water warming up they were fighting hard.

Glad to hear you guys got and and landed a bunch. I trust the boat ran well.

I was stuck here sanding some hardwood floors and thinking about fishing all day every time I looked outside.

Loaded up on Len Thompsons on Friday at TFH with the 25% off bargain. Just replacing stuff that has been lost to rocks or bitten off over the last 2 years. All set here for pike again this year now.

Thumbs up

Looks like a fun day, Dago!
Mr. Christie is looking pretty tanned, ain't he?

Save some of that good weather for next week...

You've been torturing us with your early season river fishing. Our turn is coming May 8th. If your ever down south we'll take you out and get you on some sturgeon.
