Tonight was nice and warm with just a hint of a breeze so I decided to head off to the Reservoir. The tackle was already loaded in the truck so off we went. We left the house at just after 7 pm and arrived about a quarter after.
I was hoping we would have the place to ourselves but there was a truck down in the best spot and 2 lads were fishing using Pickerel Rigs. I will be doing a write up on that particular setup as it is really popular round here. i went down to see how they were doing and apparently they had arrived about 10 minutes before us and had already pulled out 2 decent sized Walleye.
I fished for an hour with a Canadian Wiggler (yellow with red diamonds) and managed to land a young Pike. He was petty feisty but there was no way he was getting away despite me always using barbless hooks. He was double hooked on the tail treble of the wiggler, one hook through the top lip and 1 hook through his bottom lip which made it a little tricky getting the hook out.
