Slough Shark Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 This weekend was much better than the last I was out. We caught 24 fish total (the lucky number for me, if I'm at 20, I ain't stopping 'till i have 24), 8 of which were pike. Didn't see any perch come up to the boat this time, but we tried to net some in the shallows, plenty of shiners to be caught. Without further adieu, here are the pics: Spot Tail Shiners for bait: One of 16 Walleye: One of 8 Slough Sharks: Good weekend, I hope to have many more this summer!

fishytime Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Sweet... that kicks the heck outta the last time you went. I'm envious. Just moved last month and havnt had the chance to get out yet. Was gonna flyfish the Bow on sunday but the water is to high and muddy right now. Didnt want to end up like the two boneheads that died on the Bow last night.

Slough Shark Posted June 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 Yeah, I was very happy about the amount of fish we caught, the first 4 that I caught were caught in a row, as soon as I got the first one off and my lure back in the water, another grabbed on, they were so aggressive that weekend. Too bad you didn't get to go, good luck on you next trip! Cheers, Taylor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishytime Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Cant beat the action out in front of the free provincial boat launch on the west side of the lake. Just look for the huge crowd of boats all anchored up and jiggin eyes. :thumbs: Was just there yesterday and as usual Pigeon lived up to itself...bigtime. Long drive though.

Slough Shark Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Nice. I can see you were fishing at the better end of the lake, we hardly catch walleye even that size! Mainly one-pounders or less here. What were you using on them? How many do you catch/ I have a lure that is dynomight on the eyes! I can tell you of a few if you want, I've had many hours on the lake to test out different lures in different conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackMumba Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hey, I was just admiring the photo of the wall eye, and brings me to remember a photo we took of one we had during a fish derby for young kids, this was my son's and Patricks catch during that trip... this was a proud moment for him, it was his first catch and didn't know how to hold him right for the camera men who were there doing a special regarding this event. All the kids got a trophy as they were all catch and release! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slough Shark Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 That's a NICE one! That was Fishing Alberta Televesion doing the special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishytime Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Just plain old jig and minnow. Nothin fancy. Seemed to work best when you just dropped over the side of the boat and left it alone. We caught probably close to fifty eyes and one pike( no fish tale). Went through allmost 4 tubs of minnows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackMumba Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Yah no, this lake is so close to me, but I haven't gone fishing all year long... dunno why not, now you guys gave me the itch... need my liscense haven't got it yet this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slough Shark Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Well, the fishing bug is a good bug to be bitten by. It's sting can last a lifetime, but it's one of the better bug bites as far as I'm concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
