A group of 6 from Texas, in for a bachelor party, decided that they wanted to fish for a few hours this afternoon. I required the help of Don again to assist with the other two people and I would take four. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">They finally arrived sometime after 1:30 and were scheduled to fish until 4:00. A slight change of plans had 2 of them remaining on shore when the stepped on the dock and felt the rolling waves. I ended up heading out in big water, with the remaining four. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">It didn\u2019t take long once I set up to hook into the first fish. In fact, it wound up being a double and two of them were on the board. A short time later, another pike was landed and then there were three! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">It seemed like forever to finally get into the fourth fish, but eventually all of them landed pike. My biggest problem was finding clean enough water to fish. There were so much floating weeds everywhere that it was next to impossible to keep the rods clean! At one point I had to troll out of the best area, just to find water that was even fishable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">With a limited time to fish, I was definitely under the gun to produce. I managed to get a few more bites, but unfortunately the only walleye came unpinned before it got to the boat. It was a real good one too as a couple of us saw the fish on the surface!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">Before we knew it, 4:00 arrived and we headed back to take out. Although it was a little slower than I had wanted, everyone caught fish and enjoyed their time spent out in the boat. Being from Texas, they usually fish for largemouth bass and catching pike was something they always wanted to do. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">I think that this was the longest any of them had gone this weekend without alcohol, but the no drinking policy I have was in place and it stuck. They wasted no time however when they returned, meeting up with the other two and getting right back in the game. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">Despite the short time spent on the water, it was great meeting this group, sharing a few fish and a whole lot of laughs. I\u2019m sure tonight won\u2019t be as quiet as today and it definitely won\u2019t be as short. Good luck guys!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium_large wp-image-7007 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedbassin.com\/uploads\/2019\/08\/P8250680-768x564.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"470\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium_large wp-image-7008 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedbassin.com\/uploads\/2019\/08\/P8250683-768x572.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"477\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D\u00e9sol\u00e9, cet article est seulement disponible en English.
