Pan fishing is my first love and everyone in the fam enjoys it.
Some pics from last weekend.
Grandma caught a dozen, action was slow in the morning, picked up around noon as it was warmer. This one was the biggest.
Thanks Gobi, nice picture, good that your fishing with Granma, cheers Don.
A plate full of cornmeal breaded panfish for breakfast is one of lifes great joys!
Well done indeed.
The Man
a day to remember and a great picture
congrats my friend
Very cool,,,,, 8) and grandma is having a blast,,,,,,,, ;D
"Pic(s)". 1 cool one so far.
You would have fun kokanee fishing.
We have curfew in the adjoining town starting at 7 pm to 5 am, I had to call the local police to confirm curfew did not apply to us.
The fish are in shock to due rapidly changing temps, very slow.
Yeah, I have been mesmerized by kokanee fishing, much of the same techniques apply to Great Lakes coho and other species.
lol, more pic(s), you can the laser fleet racing in the background, that was an illegal activity, DNR has not issues us a lic to use the lake to race yet ::)
Hey Shibley I remember pan fishing when I was a kid. We baited the hooks with bread balls. Do you do the same? Dominick

Dominick,
Yes, I used to take a slice of loaf and wet it and squish it into a ball and use it as bait.
We use any of the ones below:
corn, bread balls, raw shrimp pieces, wax worms, Canadian worms
The Crappies are bedding, I am going to entice them with some plastic twister tails
All fishing is cool and some cooler than others. ;D

mo fish, little bigger this time
It has bit too windy to take the boat out,
We headed to the pier a few times and skunked.
Last weekend it was Cold and windy, grandma picked up a nice walleye.
The view of the sunset was worth the trip
went back the next day and the wind picked to gale force, we could not fish near the mouth of the channel and moved down further inside.
the high winds brought out the kite surfers (men/women who have cajones the size of basketballs)
Dewinterized the "fishing machine"
Cleaned all battery contacts and charged the batts in my garage and I am happy to say that the volts at the helm are up a bit. Nice.
Could not find the remote to the minnkota so had to use gas motor, at lowest RPM at I was pushing 3.1 mph SOG, lol.
John, my fishing buddy came along to keep the boat level :-)
Fish caught = 0
but it was fun being out on the H2O.
Good days fishing don't have much to do with the number..or size..of the fish caught. It's the fun, and fellowship that make the trip a success !
Good to see you getting back on the water...Bill
Fantastic fishing and nice looking boat too ,,,,,,,,,,, ;D
It was the last sunny day that day, since then it has rained everyday, lol.
The boat is going back to storage tomorrow.
I can't find my Minnkota remote :-(

I used to go out alone just to enjoy the fellowship. Dominick

Dominicks is best quote ever. Charles Shultz said, well Linus anyway, "I love mankind, It's people i can't stand".
Went out last weekend to de-winterize my buddies boat, he was in rehab for nearly a year,
After working out all parts of the boat and the kicker we decided to "Meditate" for couple of hours, it is a new type of medication called Perch fishing. ::)
Finally after a lot of meditation and prayers I hooked up to a cow perch [pic below],
Finally we moved from 45 FOW to 5 FOW and caught some small/large perch mixed. It was fun overall plus I got to nap while perch fishing with minnows.
