Another Initiation
July 2, 2019
July 2nd 2019
Whitney, Jeff & their family were on vacation, all the way from LA, and looking forward to an afternoon of fishing. They were heading to the eastern townships for several days on a lake and managed to hook up with me before leaving.
Their two sons Austin & Logan had never fished before and were really looking forward to catching their first fish! I definitely wanted to get them as many as I could so we concentrated on trolling for pike & walleye. Good choice too as it was a scorcher, but not under the comfort of the roof! It was at least 20 degrees cooler in the shade!
Although it took longer than I had hoped, for the first reel to fire, it was a double and both boys were initiated into the world of fishing!
Plenty more reels fired after and the afternoon was filled with loads more fish. Both pike & walleye were brought to net, with a couple of the eyes making it into the livewell. They would be eating well tonight!
Whitney was the only one without catching anything so I made sure she got the last rod that fired before we called the day. She landed a nice pike and joined the rest, in catching fish today!
Today was a pleasure fishing with the Roy family and I hope we can get together in the future, to do it again! I also hope they are lucky enough to fish, during the rest of their vacation here in Canada!
