The Heatwave Continues

Mike and his two sons, Caden & Teagan were with me for the morning & looking to catch some fish. I gave them the option of what they wanted and we decided to head for pike & walleye. They had never caught pike before and had limited success with the walleye. Hopefully the fish would cooperate!

Once we arrived, I began covering water and finally found some fish for them to battle. It may have begun with a couple of pike but soon we were into the walleye as well. They even had the first double of the morning with two good walleye on the lines!

I focused on one stretch and managed to get them plenty more fish as I went back and forth. A couple more double headers were even seen too! Despite another day with intense heat, the action was on fire for a while. Caden almost had the biggest eye of the season but fell short when it came unpinned before the boat. Although tough to handle, he did redeem himself with one of the last fish of the day. This one wasn’t quite as big as the one he lost but it was definitely a large eye! We ended on a high with another good walleye and called it a day with the release. All the fish got to live today!

I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome for these 3 guests as the fish seemed to come alive this morning. It seemed like old times with plenty of action in only a half day trip. Everyone landed their fair share and a couple of new species were landed by some. They definitely all landed their personal bests in both categories! Great day all around!!
