LAKE SUPERIOR (off shore fishing)
June 18, 2006

Myself and my wife spent the afternoon fishing along the shoreline of Lake Superior in downtown Thunder Bay. The weather was nice on this day, a little windy but the sun was out and it was warm. We walked along the shore of the small bay and we were successful in landing a couple of small "Hammer Handles", but nothing big. We then decided to make our way across to the small break wall and fish the sheltered waters between it and the shoreline. We found a nice spot to stand on the rocks and fished a drop off right out in front of us. Here we landed a couple of larger Pike, Amanda caught a nice thick 28 incher that put up a nice fight. We landed a couple of others and then they all decided that they had enough, that was it no more, they stopped bitting. We started heading back when I decided I wanted to try wading out a bit further to see if the fish were out deeper, I was wrong. I wadded out past my waist (just shorts and sandles) but I think I was on the wrong side of the river mouth. I ended up catching nothing that day while wadding, but it was a hot summers day, nothing wrong with getting a little wet!
