Default What a year!

2017 was quite the year for a variety of species for me. The time spent with good friends doing what I love to do can’t be beat, it truly is priceless. The fish were a bonus! I hope everyone had a great year and wishing everyone good fishing success in 2018.

Looks like you had a fantastic season! Gotta admit that those pike make me feel a tad envious!

You done good. Awesome pictures of some real quality fish. Thanks for taking the time to share. Good job, keep a tight line and a sharp hook.

Thanks a bunch everyone! This province sees some extreme angling pressure but also offers up some fantastic fish with some time and effort put in.

Well said!

Those are some immense pike! All the fish are huge. Of course there is nice sturgeon too
Do you have a favorite catch of the year out of the bunch?

Thanks Snap, I would have to say my wife’s Pike was my favourite of the year. She was so excited and fought it like a pro, a very proud moment for me.
