Eagan, Minnesota

Been awhile since I caught a perch this year.

I got me a pike today. I could see it spiraling towards me.

Big bait, big bobber, big hook. Just 5 seconds after hitting the water and the bobber dip and move away fast. The most awesome catch of the morning and the biggest bass I have caught here so far.

You can't doubt me when I have video proof of this awesome catch.

Lost one and then got this one.

When she says nothing is biting then I come fish next to her and this happen. I almost lost my rod unhooking this fish because I had a fish on when I set it down and my rod literally lifted halfway over the rail.

I told her there's a pike chasing all the bluegills I have been catching around the dock and she didn't believe me until this happened. Pull so much of her drag. Her first pike ever here.

Bit it and let it go then came back and bit it for real this time. I thought it was a bass at first by how it fought like a bass then I saw a glimpse of it's bottom tip white tail and I knew it was a walleye. Pretty good size walleye which I didn't measure or weigh. We will never know.
